Manuscript Features
Some pages (3v, 4r, 4v, 5r on exp. 005 and 006; 27v and 28r on exp. 029; 71v on exp 073; 87r, 87v on exp. 089 and 090; two pages on exp. 091, on of them numbered as 86) are written by a second hand on paper and pasted onto the palm-leaves. Foliation in the right margin continues throughout the whole manuscript and has apparently been inserted by the second scribe. The foliation in the left margin has been applied by the first scribe. The second scribe repeats the colophon of the first. After the colophon of the first scribe there follows a note by a third hand, which includes another date, probably NS 716.
