Script Commentary

Script is a squarish, early half-uncial recalling the archaic half-uncial of the Livy Epitome (CLA 2.208): A, E, G, S are uncial; b, d, r are distinctly half-uncial; m approaches the half-uncial form; the bows of b, d, o, q are open at the top; the first stroke of N descends below the line; the form of S is noteworthy; u is almost cup-shaped.
