The CDDGB helps those interested in Greek handwriting identify manuscripts which are dated or dateable

ITSEE doctoral student Grant Edwards has posted online The Collaborative Database of Dateable Greek Bookhands (CDDGB), a catalogue of objectively dated Greek manuscripts written in a literary script between 0-899 CE. 

The CDDGB helps those interested in Greek handwriting identify manuscripts which are dated or dateable and, therefore, significant for understanding the development of Greek handwriting. The CDDGB is a collaborative project and invites the academic community to recommend additional manuscripts for the database or suggest edits to current entries.
