Description
Abstract (cited)

This work examines Elizabeth Duncan’s 2015 argument that Hand H represents six hands rather than one hand as postulated by R. I. Best in 1912 and suggests that Best’s original argument is correct and that the variation both Duncan and Best see in Hand H is a result of writing on abraded vellum and trying to make textual additions fit within the columns of the MS.
