| Scribe description: | Gothic script with ancient featurs. Two-compartment 'a' of which the upper compartment is open. Exclusive use of straight, half-uncial 'd', although uncial 'd' is used in the majuscule column. The lower lobe of 'g' is open. I-longa is used after 'y'. Pronounced tongued 'e'. Abbreviations include superscript vowels ('a', 'e', 'i', 'o'), Tironian 'et' which is generally uncrossed (except for in the majuscule column); horizontal bar is used for q(ue) but untypically also for 'r'-abbreviations. Unusual in younger Gothic script is also the 'est'-abbreviation. Unusual biting of 'a' and round 'r'. |
