Evidence

"with a note (in the upper margin) by the copyist Shahin Kandi stating that the passage, indicated by a red line in the left margin, had been corrected."

Remarks

Used for editorial marking in a translation of the Book of Psalms (f. 153a) by Bobovius. The correction was noted by the copyist Shahin Kandi, who was employed by the orientalist Jacob Golius in the 1660s in Istanbul (p. 7). The red pigment serves a specific functional purpose for manuscript correction (p. 7).
