    This Bachelor Thesis studies the panorama of women in Ptolemaic Egypt from a philological, papyrological and sociological point of view. A corpus of six letters written in Greek from Zenon's archive is individually investigated, whose senders were women of different ages, diverse social backgrounds and from non-identical origins, considering the material aspects, such as the format, the arrangement of the text on the surface and the margins, and the characteristics of the scribes' hand. Furthermore, the content of each letter is also examined, paying special attention to the life of the senders, the characteristics of the Greek language, the typical formulas of the letters and the diverse topics of the life of women in the third century BC in Egypt. Firstly, an introduction to Zenon son of Agreophon and his archive and the women mentioned in it (including the ones who sent the letters included on the corpus) is carried out. Following this, a translation of the letters from Greek to Spanish based on the transcription available in the papyri.info database of papyrological texts is offered, together with an analysis of each letter with the support of the secondary bibliography, detailed at the end of the paper. In the conclusion, all the letters of the women previously studied are put together, examining the common palaeographic features and the formats used, as well as the characteristics of the Greek language in all the letters, the frequent formulas and, finally, the situation of the women featured in the letters.
