| Script Commentary |
Script is a not very expert uncial of a type recalling the Florentine Digests and legal fragments found in Egypt: B rises above the line; the upright of R extends below the line and the bow comes down to the base line; the letters uncial A, uncial E, O, N, and P follow the Greek rather than the Latin norm. |
