Abstract
Re-edition of a Greek amulet now in Washington, dc (Dumbarton Oaks Museum) with new readings and detailed commentary. An interpretation of a close relation of the inscribed prayer, which petitions an angel for protection, to Judaism, or even membership of its bearer in a Jewish community in the Black Sea region in particular, is proposed.
