I made a selection of the (most obvious) lame gallows (code 244 v101).
There may be several explanations for the existence of such gallows. For example, a clerk in the process of writing the gallows P, F changed his mind and wrote K, T.
But I prefer to assume that the right leg can connect to another glyph “e” at the base of the string, just as the left leg of the gallows sometimes does.
Separately, it should be noted that the lameness of the gallows is observed in words with “identical roots” (highlighted by rectangles). I described a similar observation in long benches when the glyph “c” is written with a gap. #14 You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
