Abstract
When the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus was received by the British Museum in 1864, it was broken in some places, and portions of the brittle fragments were missing. Subsequently the papyrus roll was unrolled and mounted in two glass frames, the first portion, called the Recto (reading from right to left), having a jagged break because of these missing fragments. The whole papyrus was originally 18 ft. long and a little over a foot in width, the second half, called the Verso, having a blank space about 10 ft. long towards the left-hand end, upon which nothing is written.
