[b-greek] Dating: PGM; (EN)DUNAMOW

Does anyone know about the dating of the Papyri Graecae Magicae?

I'm looking at dictionary entries (BDAG et al.) trying to trace the
history of the verb(s) DUNAMOW and ENDUNAMOW. My original question was
whether they were NT/Christian coinages (pretty convinced now they're
not, due to in part to looking at Deissman after his being mentioned
here recently :) but I still want to learn how to evaluate attestation
data.

If anyone has advice/insight on these particular verbs, I'd also be
happy to hear :) (Am already looking at standard references like TDNT
and LSJ, plus Lampe, M-M; HR and Lust on LXX.)

His w/thanks,
Josephine Dru
