Script Commentary

Script is small and carefully written uncial, to be compared with Pap. Oxy. 2089 (CLA 12.1715): the thick vertical strokes contrast sharply with the fine horizontal strokes; d has the half-uncial form; the bows of d and q are large and squarish, those of P and R tiny; the middle stroke of N is a sagging hair-line; the first stroke of R goes below the line and the final stroke is nearly horizontal; S has an ancient form with the two ends very thin; the top of T thickens on the upper left and on the lower right end; perhaps a forerunner of the B-R type.
