Script Early Caroline Minuscule
Date VIII ex (776 - 800)
Origin and Provenance

Written probably in the Freising region, to judge from the script. The London fragments are used as fly-leaves in manuscripts from the monastery of St Georgenberg in the Tyrol; the Donaueschingen and Basel fragments probably come from the same place.

Script Commentary

Script is a roundish early Caroline minuscule of Bavarian type with marked resemblance to that of an early Freising group (Munich CLM 6279, 6299, 6308, etc.): a and d have two forms; the ligature hi with subscript i occurs. For other details, see under London and Basel (CLA 2.168 and CLA 7, p. 4).
