A total of forty-five manuscripts were digitized this week, the thirtieth week of 2023. In continuation of the last few weeks, there was no obvious pattern to the fonds represented. The largest number came from Ott.lat, which added fourteen. Next came the Barberini siblings, Barb.lat with eight and Barb.gr with seven, followed by the unusually small addition from Vat.lat, only four. Both Capp.Giulia and Vat.ar added three, P.I.O added two, and one each from a quartet of unusual fonts, Ferr, Reg.gr.PioII, Vat.estr.or and Vat.ind.

One of the subsections of the Ott.lat fond that has been digitized recently is a series of volumes, probably autograph or made under his direction, of antiquarian works of Octavius de Strada. This week Ott.lat .1269 was added, a collection of brief biographical sketches and "portraits", in the style of sculptural busts, of the Roman emperors and their wives from Julius Caesar through Julian. To the right is p.241, with Constantius Chlorus, father of Constantine the Great.

The border at the bottom is from f.1r of Ott.lat.1291, a 15th C copy of Livy's Ab Urbe Condita. This volume starts on book 31, covering the start of the Second Macedonian War.
