Online Palaeography Tutorial at the National Archives

Post by SarahND » Wed Oct 31, 2007 5:17 pm

Hi all,
I just came upon a reference to this, and don't think it has been mentioned yet on the board.

It's another useful tool to improve your skills reading documents (we can always use more of these!), put up by the National Archives:

http://nationalarchives.gov.uk/palaeography/default.htm

There are a number of sample documents and a tutorial to help you through them.

Have fun!
Sarah
