Liturgical Roll Fragment

Three fragments of an 11th century manuscript from about 1040 -1099 CE, roll of the Liturgy of St. Basil in the Byzantine Rite of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Probably found in Berat, Albania. Two of the fragments share a border. Text is missing between the second and third. Headings and initials in gold. The sides are missing because they were eaten by rodents.
