Material
Condition of document

Fragment P-B-5 has significant trimming along its top part and the outer margin of side C, while fragment P-B-3 shows similar trimming along its top part and the outer margin of side B. In fragment P-B-3, side A is reduced to a small portion of its central inner part. Both fragments also have multiple holes and tears, which, with the trimming, result in important loss of content. Even so, the remaining portions of the two fragments are in fair condition and still readable.

Remarks

Two bifolios from the same breviary preserved under different shelfmarks. Both fragments were either the outer or an internal bifolio of different quires, as their contents are not sequential.

To present the contents in liturgical order, each original image was split into two separate images. Fragment P-B-3 corresponds to images Ar-Bv, while fragment P-B-5 corresponds to images Cr-Dv. The original images are labeled in the Image Gallery as "Z1" through "Z4".
