Contents
Comparison via Cantus Database shows that this fragment shares with Toledo Catedral - Archivo y Biblioteca Capítulares, 44.2 alone the same chants in the same order for the feast of Exaltatio Crucis: this cautiously allows to posit some degree of affinity between the two documents. The two sources also share the same chants and order for the feast of Commune Plurimorum Martyrum, but this second feast is much more standardized and fixed across sources than that for the first one.
Type of notation
Aquitanian (Portuguese variety)
Inscriptions
On fol. Av, top and bottom: INV./BOL. 96 (38) IV-3º S. - GV.44 (12)
Material
Parchment
Condition of document

This fragment is made up of two folios glued together (in mirror positions) formerly used as a book cover. Both are fairly legible but have been trimmed to fit the size of the bound book, causing serious loss of contents. Approximately 80% of the original folio A survives, while fol. B lost more than half of its original size.

Page layout

Full page. Fol. A: c. 420 x c. 285 mm. Fol. B: 130 x 280 mm.

Foliation/Pagination

Folio A, according to the foliation inscribed on the top margin of its recto (iiijxxxij), was once fol. 432 of a large antiphoner.
