No, but I can find some. I\u2019m a librarian! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

OKAY SO.<\/p>\n

To start, how about the\u00a0The Codex Assemanianus?<\/p>\n

It was probably 10th century, but it\u2019s still cool. You can read more about it here [link<\/a>], and there are two pages of scans from it [link<\/a>] [link<\/a>]. Quite a few of these pages would be really easy to translate into SCA awards. I might do a few blanks myself for our current blank drive\u2026 Here are a couple of my favorites:

f. 10r<\/p>\n

<\/p><\/But if we want to be firmly in the 11th Century, how about the Ostromir Gospels? These date to 1056-7. You can find more info at the National Library of Russia [link<\/a>].

f. 2r<\/p>\n

Lastly, there is the Arkhangelsk Gospel, also know as the Archangel Gospel, which dates to 1092, making it the fourth oldest Slavic manuscript we have. You can view the whole thing online at the Russia State Library [link<\/a>].<\/p>\n
