Description | Half a leaf from a Bible, parchment. The leaf has been cut in half horizontally, this is the bottom section. Text in black/dark brown in two columns in a protogothic hand with red and blue decoration on the verso. The text on the recto is Numbers 29:14-17 and Numbers 29:21-29. The text on the verso is Numbers 29:36-39 and Numbers 30:6-9. The fragment appears to have been recycled as the outer covering of an octavo-sized volume. In the centre of the bottom margin on the recto there is a faint annotation that may be the title of the bound work. In the right-hand margin of the recto there are two additional annotations, "IKCG" and "1589". |
