A fragment of an unknown Armenian homiletic collection from the Georgian National Centre of Manuscripts

Dali Chitunashvili and Dali Chitunashvili · 2022

Catalogue summary

Two parchment flyleaves removed during restoration of a fifteenth-century Armenian Gospel in Georgia are identified as pieces of a larger, multi-column homiletic manuscript through their script, dimensions, margins, and line layout.

Why this matters

The fragment adds recoverable evidence about medieval Armenian preaching collections and the reuse of manuscript material across the Caucasus.
