General Information
A Nothern hybrid Gothic script.
Original Condition
Fragment 72/02, seemingly the showing the left-hand margin intact, shows the original height and number of lines of the text block.
-
The line height on fragments 72/08 and 72/09 is slightly higher than on the other seven fragments (3.2 mm vs 2.2 mm).
-
At least 2 columns (see 72/03).
Current Condition
9 fragments from the same parent manuscript, and perhaps leaf, used to reinforce the binding and/or spine of their manuscript host volume, from which they are now detached.
-
Pieces of the binding from the host volume are still attached to some fragments. The discolouration on the dorses of the fragments indicates they were pasted down to the front and/or back boards.
-
There is extensive staining and wear to the parchment.
Book Decoration and Musical Notation
No decoration.
