Résumé : The recent excavation works carried out in Antinoupolis by an Italian Mission directed by Rosario Pintaudi have resulted in the finding of some more oracle tickets addressed to S. Colluthus, that, together with those found since the third decade of the 20th century, form a corpus of about 200 pieces. This article – which represents a preliminary account of a more detailed study which will analyze also the archaeological context where the oracle tickets have been found – focuses on the formulas used in the documents, on the medical-oracular practices attested in Antinou- polis and on analogous oracular cults of Egypt.
