CodexParchmenti, 48, i240-265mm x 115-215mmLater foliation: Foliated in the lower margins.Poor: The manuscript is defective and rather dark. The script is at some places hard to
decipher or illegible because of wear. Fols. 27-33 have holes and are damaged at the
top and bottom near the spine. Fols. 36-37 are damaged in the same
way. Fols. 1, 3, 5,
17, 24, 27, 38 and 39 have tears or holes. Fols. 39,
40 and 48 have once been used as binding. Fols. 29-31 are considerably smaller than the other leaves.210-220mm x 95-180mmJón OddssonCursivaSole
Info: It has been suggested that Jón Oddsson was the scribe of the manuscript
(Scott, Eyrbyggja
saga, p. 110).
High
- Initial: Colored initials and red rubrics throughout the manuscript.
- Initial (historiated): Fol. 1va has a 7-line initial A depicting the birth of king Olav Tryygvason: the mother, lying in childbed holding her child in her hands; another person stands beside the bed. Fol. 20rb has a 5-line initial N depicting two people in a boat.
Medium
- In the lower margin of the codex are notes and proverbs written in red ink by the scribe. A later hand added notes and shelf marks in the upper margin.
- In the bottom margin of fol. 17v the scribe wrote: "Jon odds son a mikok er ecki nema hans eign".
- There are two AM-slips: the recto of the a-slip says: "Olafs Saga Tryggvasonarvantar [vantar mikid ï] Allar 3 arkirnar eru samstaðar og vantar ekki í nema við endann hefr ödruvïs upphaf enn adrar. þattur af þorsteini Uxafot. þattur af Nornagest. þattur Helga Þorissonar. Hallla þattur, vantar endann. communicavit Th. Th.". The verso has a copy of two of the rubrics: "ættar t…" and "huerir konungar styrt hafa noregi." The b-slip has:"Aptan af LaxdælaSögu framan af Eyrbyggiu ur Grettis sögu þetta fragment er mitt, og heyrer manifeste til hins fragmentsens qvod communicavit. Th. Th. hvar ä er partur framan af Olafs Sögu Tr. s. Eg true eg hafi þetta feinged fra Bæ i Floa."
