Summary
Two parchment items that provide Stichera (hymns) are used as covers for a paper codex.
The text is written in Greek, in careful minuscule rounded script that is often addressed to theological and liturgical texts.
In one of the items (used as front cover of the codex) we note majuscule initials positioned to the left, out of the main body of the text.
