P Oxy II. 294.20 (A.D. 22) (= Selections, p. 35) ἐν κ ̣οσ [τ ]ωδε [ίᾳ εἰσί is, so far as we know, the earliest ex. of this borrowed word. For the spelling κουστωδία, as in Matthew 27:65 f; Matthew 28:11, cf P Ryl II. 189.2 (A.D. 128) δημοσίο ̣(υ) ἱματισμο ̣υ ̣ͅ κουστωδιω ̣ν, ";public clothing for the guards"; : see also Hatzidakis Gr. p. 109. In a fragmentary report referring to the Jewish War of Trajan, P Par 68A. .8, we find κωστωδία —ταῦτα ἐγένετο ὅτι τινὰς ἐπὶ κωστωδίαν ἥρπασαν καὶ [τοὺς ἁρπασθέντ ]ας ἐτραυμάτισαν : the word is similarly restored in BGU I. 341.3 (ii/A.D.).
