Welcome to Sylvan Scriptorium!
I'm Túathal na Coilleadh, currently writing from the Barony of Stonemarche, East Kingdom. My main research and recreation interest is in the manuscripts of western European Middle Ages. Here you will find my research, descriptions of my scribal projects, and helpful links for paleography and calligraphy.
Projects
- Codex Annamiticus: 14th century Irish physician's handbook of cures.
- Sylvan's Universal Anthology: Medieval-inspired personal ritual book.
- Corrigan MS Lat 001: 14th century German exorcist's manual based off a period example.
- SCA Scrolls done by me in collaboration with other artisans. Only my East Kingdom work is shown here, not previous Middle Kingdom work.
- Smaller pieces of calligraphy practice.
