    History

    Provenance

    Fragment contains ex-libris stamp of the Antwerp City Archives ('Archieven der stad Antwerpen') on fol. [1]r, the precursor of FelixArchief.

    Host Volume

    Remarks

    Fragment was presumedly used as a cover for a register or ledger related to the year 1675, as this year is mentioned in an inscription on fol. 75r. There are also several calculations inscribed on fol. 75r, it is therefore possible that the fragment was used as a cover for an account.
