Reconstruction Summary

This fragment is of exceptional importance because it is a remnant of a manuscript that was copied 'in imposition', that is to say, on uncut sheets of parchment, in the manner of a typographical book. This can be seen because the remaining strip contains text from two leaves that are still attached at the top.
