Sinhalese Palm Leaf Manuscript from 1750 | From the Stacks
Most books today have a very specific physical form, but that wasn't always the case in many parts of the world. One type of book that might look especially peculiar to modern Western eyes is the Sinhalese palm leaf manuscripts of Sri Lanka. Join Mütter Museum staff member Kevin Diggs for a quick look at one of these fascinating books!

I so look forward to new videos here.
Another cruel tease! These glimpses are just mean! For those of us who never have the privilege of visiting the museum, I wish there was a way to see these awesome things digitally. I would certainly pay!

I need to spend the day at Mutter, soon!
That's it? I wanna know more. What was it used for?

I really don’t feel like that had enough time paid to it. It looks like a Venetian blind that red like a card catalog, but should’ve been red like it was placed out in a long table. I want to know what it says on the table. Everything that is written is written away thatis giving favor to the writer because of the writing instrument. I really want to know what is on those pages.😊
The video is too short!!!

Too short! More questions than answers, a bit of a disappointment. Where from? Why written? How rare? Contents?
