Script Commentary

Script is rather massive, not very expert uncial: the bow of uncial A descends in a hair-line and curls back; the base of B often ends in a little downward curve; the hasta of uncial E is central; the second upright of N is wedge-shaped; the bow of R descends almost to the base-line; uncial E with cedilla is regularly used for the diphthong Æ. Eight letters referring to Ravenna were copied on the back of the rotulus at the beginning of the tenth century.

Notes
