Script Uncial
Date VII ex (676 - 700)
Origin and Provenance

Written probably in England, to judge by the script and the use of vellum, and doubtless in a centre of some importance, to judge by the excellence of the script. The leaf belonged to Georg von Laubmann, director (1882–1909) of the Munich Staatsbibliothek, which acquired it in 1911.

Script Commentary

Script is careful, regular, and somewhat studied uncial, by an expert scribe: the bow of A is made of very fine strokes; the arch of h is perfectly rounded; the two strokes of X rest on the line; the letter R in the abbreviation of 'Marcus' in the margin has an Anglo-Saxon look.
