@lzvolk @RedEx1 One of the contenders for Eadburg was an abbess of a female religious community at Minster-in-Thanet in the mid-eighth century. Minster-in-Thanet is a village located in the southern English county of Kent.

@lzvolk @RedEx1 From the article it is noted that the manuscript was made in England between AD700 and AD750. Further it is thought that Eadburg was the author of the markings. There are at least nine known contenders for the role.

In summation at present from my understanding there is no definite time for when the markings were made.

my edition and translation of the Middle Dutch Brut, the only standalone medieval Dutch chronicle of England, is free access at the moment! liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk

A Pinned Thread on Threading and Pinning

While different, threading in Mastodon is actually pretty good. People are familiar with Twitter threads that link one post to the next in chronological order. You can do this on Mastodon too, but it’s a little less polished.

Europe’s first paper age may have started with trade imports but a separate way of producing paper developed, starting in the early thirteenth century on the Iberian Peninsula and in Italy. Around 1300 a few mills produced European paper. Fancy more: brill.com/display/book/edcoll/

The 300 years later imagined paper using scene might be correct. Writers living in Oxford, Paris or Cologne did have access to the paper flows provided by the paper trade. Paper markets were a thing around 1300.
