A lot of 2 vellum fragments from a Greek Book of Psalms written in sloped capital letters, c. 6th - 8th Century AD, with nicely penned writing on both sides. The image in the third catalog photo depicts Psalms 1:5-2:2 from the Greek translation of the Old Testament (the Septuagint). The image in the fifth catalog photo makes mention of 'most beautiful earth' but does not correspond to a known verse in the biblical Psalms. Some weathering but readable and fully lines on both sides. Fragments measure 3 in x 2 1/2 in (7.6 x 6.4 cm) and roughly 2 3/4 in x 2 7/8 in (7 x 7.3 cm) Kept within a Riker type mount. Ex Hamdy Sakr collection; previously in the private collection of Alex Anckonie III, acquired during his time in the Navy in the 1960's - 1970's.
