Is anyone on Mastodon knowledgeable about Tironian notes? I've got tentative readings of two headings in a 9th c. Text from the Loire Valley, which mix Tironian notes and Latin charaters. But there are 13,000 T. Notes in Schmitz, many of which look very similar. Thanks!!

Sure! Be forewarned, the MS is very hard to read (which is why it remained for us to decipher.)

Line 1: the start seems to be "Versus in baptisterio" but after that -- "Petri deleti"? maybe. Extremely hard to read.

Line 14: we read "De petra manante"

Line 1 of BL Harley MS 2735, fol. 1r

@taoish @histodons @medievodons @chaprot @mssprovenance Very few people can read them today. Your best bet is this, in German (highly recommend reading usage instructions first): http://www.martinellus.de/snt2/n/incipit.htm.

@taoish @histodons @medievodons @chaprot @mssprovenance Also see if your MS has already been deciphered here: http://www.martinellus.de/index/indexti.htm
