Script Commentary

Script is a well-formed uncial, not quite of the oldest type, to be compared with that of Paris Lat. 12634 (CLA 5.646): A rises slightly above short letters and its bow is a narrow oval; is made in three strokes; F has short horizontals; the bows of M are roundish; the top of T bends down at both ends; suprascript U is wing-shaped; LL run together.
