Origin and Provenance

Written probably in South-east Germany, to judge by the script. The leaves were used as fly-leaves in CLM 19482 which comes from Tegernsee; the fifteenth-century entry 'Attinet Tegernsee' by the librarian Ambrosius Swerzenpeck is seen on f. 2v.

Script Commentary

Script is an early Caroline minuscule by an expert scribe whose penmanship betrays slight Insular influence here and there: open a predominates; uncial M occurs once within the minuscule.
