Shelfmarks Antwerp, Rijksarchief te Antwerpen, Verzameling Losse Aanwinsten, nr. 2.10
Material Parchment
Date of Origin s. XIV
Script, Hands
  • Rubrics: northern littera textualis libraria (s. XIV)
  • Text: northern littera textualis currens (s. XIV), with certain tendencies towards a littera cursiva. The execution of the letter 'a' alternates between a double compartment letter 'a' (textualis) and a single compartment letter 'a' (cursiva). However, the latter may be the result of small and rapid writing. Furthermore the descenders of the letters 'f' and the straight 's' have a tendency to extend below the baseline (cursiva). Finally, in some cases, ascenders of the letters 'l' and 'b' have loops (cursiva).

More about the Condition

Since it is difficult to determine whether the lower lines on fol. [1] and [2] are later additions (and also due to the poor condition of the fragment), the number of lines is uncertain (presumably between 39 and 44).
