Papyri excavated at the Graeco-Roman site of Tebtunis in Egypt in the winter of 1899-1900. The papyri include documents from the cantonage of both human and crocodile mummies and those from the town and temple of Soknebtunis. Most of the papyri are in Greek, but some are in Demotic Egyptian. The expidition to Tebtunis was led by the British papyrologists Bernard P. Grenfell and Arthue S. Hunt.

The Tebtunis papyri form the largest collection of papyrus texts in the Americas. The collection has never been counted and inventoried completely, but the number of fragments contained in it exceeds 30,000.
