The use of ἅπας for πᾶς appears to be largely determined by considerations of euphony, and is confined principally to literary documents : see Mayser Gr. p. 161 f., where it is shown that in seventeen out of twenty-one occurrences in Ptolemaic papyri ἅπας follows a consonant, and only in four cases a vowel. As examples of ἅπας from Roman times we may cite P Oxy III. 471.82 (official—ii/A.D.) ὥστε ἄντικρυς ἁπάντων συνπαίζειν, and ib, 642 (official—ii/A.D.) πρὸ παντὸς γὰρ πεφροντίκαμεν τῆς πρὸς ὑμᾶς. . . εὐνοίας καὶ ἀρετῆς ἢ τῶν ἄλλων ἁπάντων. P Ryl II. 68.12 (B.C. 89) ε ̣͗[πληξέν ] με. . . [πλη ]γαῖς πλεί [στα ]ις εἰς α ̣̓́π ̣α ̣ν ̣ [μέρος ] τοῦ σώμα [τό ]ς μου answers to Mayser’s rule, but has no suspicion of literariness. So such a phrase as εἰς τὸν ἅπαντα χρόν [ον ], P Tebt I. 567 (late ii/B.C.).
