TRANSCRIPTIONS OF ANCIENT DOCUMENTS
These few lines are addressed to all those who are, at any given moment, confronted to reading documents, ancient manuscripts that they have discovered, and to understanding these texts which sometimes seem unreadable or even incomprehensible to them.
Thus, you try to read and reread, sometimes in vain, certain acts, thinking or knowing that they will be of great interest in the progress of your research, but you find that you remain unable to understand them completely and you have questions, or even doubts, about the reliability of your reading.
This is why I undertook to create this site, to put you in touch with my experience, in order to bring you and share my knowledge in this matter : that is to say, to offer you contributions, or complete transcriptions of old acts which you may find difficult to understand.
I will respond to you as soon as possible.
Do not hesitate to contact me.
