The manuscript is a little part of a huge book of Gregorian Chants. And the songs are the Glory and the Kyrie Eleison. On both sides we can appreciate some capital letters illuminated, in light blue and red ink, as it was used to be from the Middle Age till the Renaissance. The Manuscript is on very beautiful clean and very clear vellum. This means that this Antiphonary was a supply of a very important church or Cathedral. As unfortunately happens. Antiphonaries that arrive to our days are mostly fragmented, as due to the high quality of the vellu, they were used in Renaissance to bind books. Size: 9.5"x6,3/4" A real fragment of religious history that comes to our days. I mportant to know: buying a manuscript or an autograph is not a purchase. But an investment. These items keep and increase their value year by year. Very good preservation status considering the age. Some ink removed but the remaining shadow is still perfectly legible.

BEAUTIFUL ETHIOPIAN BIBLE LEAF MANUSCRIPT ON VELLUM:
BEAUTIFUL ETHIOPIAN BIBLE LEAF ON VELLUM: Ge'ez language is one of the Semitic languages spoken in Ethiopia in the past; and probably originated from 2 sources: The Sabaean language originated in Southern Yemen few centuries B.C; and represents an old Arabic Semitic language spoken by the famous biblical Queen of Sheba. It was also known as Himyarite language. And the second source was from Egypt during the Hyksos ruling. The Hyksos were Semitic tribes; invaded old Egypt and ruled for 400 years. When they were expelled out of Egypt they fled to Nuba. Ethiopia. And Canaan. The Christian Kingdom of Aksum(old Ethiopia) had occupied Yemen in the early centuries A.D. The Ge’ez language is a combination of the two; the Semitic and the old Ethiopian languages. It was vanished with time and nowadays is only used in biblical and Christian Orthodox ... moreschools in old Ethiopia. What you see here is an old Coptic bible or Psalms book leaf on vellum. Calf or goat skin with bold black and red ink. The red ink is usually reserved for the name of God or Saints. Some scripts vanished with years; dirt and heavy foxing exist as well. The effect of Humidity is obvious on this manuscript. But the text is not seriously affected. It measures 5.7" x 6.7" I do not know this language. So I am not sure about the exact date or content; but according to some experts and references. These bibles are not dated and vary from 300 to 600 years in age; only God knows.

Along with text. 24 lines of which span the length of the leaf, is a hand-drawn design in the lower left corner adjacent to a smaller scroll bracketing a lower paragraph of text. Top edge of leaf is close cropped and lower portion of hand-drawn design is lacking, indicating leaf is fragmentary and was likely separated along folds. A marvelous surviving Nuremberg relic of the Late Middle Ages. Nuremberg is a city in the German state of Bavaria. In the administrative region of Middle Franconia. Situated on the Pegnitz river and the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal, it is located about 110 miles north of Munich. With a current population of about 510,600 inhabitants, it is Franconia's ... morelargest city. Nuremberg was probably founded around the turn of the 11th century. According to the first documentary mention of the city in 1050, as the location of an Imperial castle between the East Franks and the Bavarian March of the Nordgau. From 1050 to 1571. The city expanded and rose dramatically in importance due to its location on key trade routes. King Conrad III established a burgraviate, with the first burgraves coming from the Austrian House of Raab but, with the extinction of their male line around 1190, the burgraviate was inherited by the last count's son-in-law, of the House of Hohenzollern. From the late 12th century to the Interregnum(1254-73) however, the power of the burgraves diminished as the Hohenstaufen emperors transferred most non-military powers to a castellan, with the city administration and the municipal courts handed over to an Imperial mayor from 1173/74. The strained relations between the burgraves and the castellan, with gradual transferral of powers to the latter in the late-14th and early-15th centuries, finally broke out into open enmity, which greatly influenced the history of the city. Nuremberg is often referred to as having bee

Please note that ebay has introduced a new detailed rating system that is based on 1-to-5 stars in four categories. However. Most ebay buyers are not aware that a 4-star rating, for example, which would usually be considered a good or very good rating to most people, is considered to ebay as failing and sellers who receive less than a 4.6 rating are being charged more to list and sell on ebay. Our rating system is based on a 30-day average, so one or two 4's a month can really knock you down! These sellers items will also appear lower in search results thus decreasing the likelihood of a sale and making it more difficult for you to find what you are ... morelooking for. If you would be so kind, please use care when you complete the survey because the rating will have a huge impact on the seller's ability to continue to sell on ebay. Also, when completing the shipping cost rating, please consider that our mailing supplies; bubble wrap, plastic protectors, photo mailers, padded envelopes, tape, etc. are not free to us. And the new ebay Shipping"Wizard" calculates most postage now. I try and refund any amount that is excessive of the costs.
