Μάρθα [page 388]
For this common name it is sufficient to cite BGU IV. 1153 i. 3 (a nursing contract B.C. 14) ὥσ ]τ̣ε̣ τ̣ι̣θ̣η̣νεῖσθαι δ̣ι̣ὰ̣ τ̣ῇς αὐτῆς Μ̣α̣ρ̣θ̣α̣ς̤ (cf. .6 ), and ib. 1155 .4 (payment of a debt B.C. 10) παρὰ ] Μάρθας τῆς Πρωτάρχου .
On the form Μαρθίνη , as an adaptation to Hellenic surroundings, see the prayers for vengeance on the murderers of the Jewish girls Heraclea and Marthine from Rheneia (Magna Delos) c. B.C. 100, discussed by Deissmann LAE p. 423 ff
