'''Purple parchment''' or '''Codex Purpureus''' refers to manuscripts written on [[parchment]] dyed purple, originally restricted for the use of Roman or Byzantine Emperors. The lettering may be in gold or silver. Later the practice was revived for some especially grand [[illuminated manuscript]]s produced for the Emperors in [[Carolingian art]] and [[Ottonian art]], in Anglo-Saxon England and elsewhere. Some just use purple parchment for sections of the work; the 8th century Anglo-Saxon [[Stockholm Codex Aureus]] alternates dyed and un-dyed pages. <br />
<br />
The ''Purple Uncials'' or the ''Purple Codices'' is a well known group of these manuscripts, all 6th century New Testament Greek manuscripts:<br />
<br />
* [[Codex Purpureus Petropolitanus]] N (022) <br />
* [[Sinope Gospels]] O (023) (illuminated)<br />
* [[Rossano Gospels]] Σ (042) (illuminated)<br />
* [[Codex Beratinus]] Φ (043) (illuminated)<br />
* [[Uncial 080]] <br />
<br />
There are two other purple New Testament Greek manuscripts, classified as [[List of New Testament minuscules|minuscules]]: <br />
* [[Minuscule 565]] known as the ''Empress Theodora's Codex'' <br />
* [[Minuscule 1143]] known as ''Beratinus 2''<br />
<br />
There is a 9th century [[lectionary]]:<br />
* [[Lectionary 46|Codex Neapolitanus]], former ''Codex Vindobonensis 2''<br />
<br />
Another six purple parchments (''a'', ''b'', ''e'', ''f'', ''i'', ''j''), also New Testament manuscripts, are in Latin and held at: [[Brescia]], [[Naples]], [[Sarezzano]] and [[Trento|Trent]]. Three of these use [[Vetus Latina]] texts. <br />
<br />
* [[Codex Vercellensis]]<br />
* [[Codex Veronensis]]<br />
* [[Codex Palatinus]]<br />
* [[Codex Brixianus]]<br />
* [[Codex Purpureus Sarzanensis]]<br />
* [[Codex Vindobonensis Lat. 1235]]<br />
<br />
There is also one Gothic purple codex — [[Codex Argenteus]] (illuminated)<br />
<br />
There is a purple manuscript of part of the [[Septuagint]]: <br />
* [[Vienna Genesis]] (illuminated)<br />
<br />
Other illuminated manuscripts include the [[Godescalc Evangelistary]] of 781-3, the [[Vienna Coronation Gospels]] (early 9th century) and a few pages of the 9th century [[La Cava Bible]] from the [[Kingdom of Asturias]]. Anglo-Saxon examples include a lost 7th century gospels commissioned by [[Saint Wilfrid]]. <br />
