The Acts of Philip is most completely represented by a text discovered in 1974 by François Bovon and Bertrand Bouvier in the library of Xenophontos monastery on Mount Athos in Greece.

The followers were Philip, Bartholomew, and — a leading figure in the second half of the text — a woman named Mariamne, who is identified in the text as Philip's sister, and who Bovon at first suggested may be identical to Mary Magdalene.

The text discovered by Bovon also described a community that practised vegetarianism and celibacy.

The manuscript discovered by Bovon has been published in a French translation.
