摘要

摘要:本文描述了第一次使用x射线显微ct成像读取受损古卷内部的努力,这比大多数展开的古卷有一个额外的复杂性,因为这个过程已经成功:两边都有文字。该项目由一名人文学者、一组计算机科学家和工程师、图书管理员和管理员合作完成,负责对手稿M.910进行x射线微型ct成像。手稿M.910是一份五世纪或六世纪的羊皮纸《使徒行传》手稿,目前已严重受损,无法打开。第一轮图像处理于2017年12月在摩根图书馆和博物馆进行,第二轮于2019年11月进行;使用机器学习恢复文本的工作正在进行中,并且已经产生了一些单词和短语的识别。我们首先描述M.910抄本,包括其抄本学的基础知识,以及它对早期基督教书籍文化的潜在意义,以及圣经文本的历史。然后,我们提供了手稿成像过程的概述,在技术细节的水平,旨在为一般观众,与提供在这一不断扩大的研究领域的未来工作的参考希望。关键的第一步是准备手稿的底座,这必须考虑到保护安全和微型ct成像的必要性。我们还分解了成像过程本身,这是由Skyscan微型ct扫描仪执行的,该扫描仪由Micro Photonics捐赠用于该项目。最后,我们对正在进行的初步数据分析进行了简要的讨论。

The X-Ray Micro-CT of a Full Parchment Codex to Recover Hidden Text: Morgan Library M.910, an Early Coptic Acts of the Apostles Manuscript
Abstract:This article describes the first effort to read inside a damaged codex using X-Ray micro-CT imaging, which has an additional complication beyond most unrolled scrolls, for which the process has been successful: there is writing on both sides. The project is a collaboration between a humanist, a team of computer scientists and engineers, as well as librarians and conservators, to undertake the x-ray micro-CT imaging of codex M.910, a fifth- or sixth-century parchment codex of Acts of the Apostles which is too damaged to open in its current state. The first round of image processing was conducted in December 2017 at the Morgan Library and Museum, and a second round in November 2019; work on restoring the text using machine learning is ongoing, and has already resulted in the identification of some words and phrases. We first describe codex M.910, including the basics of its codicology, and its potential significance for early Christian book culture, as well as the history of the biblical text. We then provide an overview of the manuscript imaging process, at a level of technical detail intended for a general audience, with the hope of providing a reference for future work in this expanding field of research. The key initial step was the preparation of the manuscript’s mount, which had to take into account the necessities of both conservation safety and micro-CT imaging. We also break down the imaging process itself, which was carried out by Skyscan micro-CT scanner, donated for use in this project by Micro Photonics. Finally, we give a brief discussion of the ongoing preliminary data analysis.
