f115r / Hand @ or Hand 3 ?

[LisaFaginDavis]

I agree with you that the manuscript was likely written in stacked, rather than nested, bifolia, which would indeed mean that folio 104v was consecutive as well as conjoint with 115r. That doesn't change my assessment that Scribe 2 picked up the writing at the top of 115r before handing things back to Scribe 3. I can't explain why that would have happened, only that that's what I see. 

If you've watched my most recent lecture, you'll see that I am indeed arguing that the manuscript was originally a stack of loose bifolia rather than its current nested structure:

I will have much more to say about this idea in a forthcoming article (hopefully coming out in 2026) and book (2027). 

Could anyone say why it is that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. needs to have '$H=@' in the transliteration page header?

This seems to me to be wrong.

Pages You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. are on the same side of the parchment sheet. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is on the left side, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is on the right side. Now, if you look closely at You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. you will see that the writing is in a colour that is darker than normal for quire 20. Also the top lines in f115r are similarly dark. Moreover because there is good evidence that the manuscript was written sheet-by-sheet and not in book page order it is likely that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. and the top lines in f115r were written in one sitting by the same person.

Would this not be sufficient reason for making hand 3 the writer of f115r?

Some of you will notice that You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. which faces You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. also has its top lines dark. However I still believe sheet-by-sheet to be the most likely conjecture.
