• Naples Italy Biblioteca Nazionale Lat. 1 (foll. 1–10, 17, 18, 20, 21, 23–26, 31–35, 38–40, 44, 49) [palimpsest old]

Written probably in North Africa. Leaves of the ancient MS were used again at Bobbio in the eighth century for copying the grammatical treatises described in the preceding item. For the later history of the MS see the previous CLA 3.388.

Script is an uncial of the oldest type by a not very expert scribe: the bow of uncial A is pointed; the bows of B, P, and R are small; the eye of uncial E is open, its hasta thick and slightly above the middle; the bar of F is tiny and on the line; the tail of G is small; the bows of uncial M are compressed; the top of O is somewhat pointed. A marginal note in cursive saec. VI in the upper left-hand corner of fol. 31 ('hic pugna . . .').
