κατασφραγίζω is found bis in the unfortunately very fragmentary report of a professional searcher for stolen goods, P Petr III. 65 (b).6, .13. Cf. P Par 35.21 (B.C. 163) κ ]αὶ τοῦτον (sc. σταμνὸν) κατασφραγισάμενος : the verb παρασφραγίζω occurs bis in the same document. See also PSI IV. 358.8 (B.C. 252–1) ὃ κατεσφράγισται ἐν κυψάληι (";chest";) ἐν τῷ σιτοβολῶνι (";storehouse,"; cf. Genesis 41:56) ἀρτάβαι δέκα. With the use in Revelation 5:1 cf. OGIS 266.42 (iii/B.C.) τά τε γράμματ᾽ ἀνοίσω κατεσφραγισμένα, and Syll 790.48 (i/B.C.), cited s.v. ἀγγεῖον.
