ETHIOPIAN SCROLLS, Ethiopia
*Ethiopian Scroll 5 was selected by the Fitchburg Museum and
was donated to their permanent collection.
Ethiopia has been a Christian nation since the 4th century. These Coptic
gospel texts are handwritten and illustrated on vellum, a fine parchment
made from calfskin, lambskin, or kidskin. Although age is impossible to
establish definitively, we believe they date from the 19th or early 20th
century.
