The history of the manuscript dates back to the Byzantine era, and it was found in the area of Akhmim in Sohag Governorate, which is part of a 32 -pages of the New Testament blog on slavery made of deer.
This amazing piece has documented the stages of the development of writing since the ancient Egyptians invented the blogging methods in the fourth millennium BC, starting with the engraving of stone and bone, then the invention of papyrus sheets from the legs of the papyrus, to the use of slavery – the chorean – which represents an advanced stage in the history of writing.
The manuscript was written using a pen of the jungle or a pen -shake from the jungle, and the width of the piece is 16 cm, which makes it a rare model that combines religious and historical value, and an important reference for the study of manuscripts arts in the Byzantine era.
