Recipe Details
Evidence
"There is a correlation between religious documents and skin-based materials, whereas almost all legal documents were written on paper."
Remarks
The study notes a strong correlation between the document type and support material. Paper was the primary support for legal documents, likely dictated by the price the scribe or client was willing to pay (p. 167). This contrasts with religious documents which tended to use parchment or leather.
