f82r - label x + St Catherine

[Jorge_Stolfi]

It is unacceptable to write on k'laf on the hair side or on the split skin (either g'vil or duchsustos) on the flesh side.

But this sentence implies that g'vil and duchsustos were not merely the two sides of k'laf.  It implies that each of the two halves of the split skin had two sides.

Split cow leather is a thing: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

So the question is whether split parchment (from some animal) was a thing too.  Lamb skin and deer skin seem to be too thin for that.  What about calf skin? One of the links I posted before suggests that what passed for "uterine" parchment, supposedly from unborn calf fetuses, was in fact split parchment...

All the best, --stolfi
