Script Commentary

Script is a bold, well-formed Rustic capital of an old type: H resembles IC with a thin bar through the C; the two uprights of M are oblique; G and V approach the uncial form. Voluminous fifth-century scholia by two hands using mixed uncial and early half-uncial: b, d, m are uniformly half-uncial; g, r, s have both forms; i-longa used initially, also medially when semi-vocal and after g, r, and t. The scholiast employs curious and ingenious signes de renvoi, and for punctuation a series of points or ivy-leaves mounting obliquely; apparently the only abbreviations are , and omitted m marked by a simple line.
