> register from  the western parts of today's Austria. The Latin text on
> the page refers to a classical bible passage for the instruction of
> married couples (Ephesians 5:29). The mysterious script is not Semitic
> or Slawic, not Georgian or Armenian, not Coptic or some ancient
> derivative of the Greek alphabet.

> Many thanks in advance, and best regards,
