1THE BOHAIRIC MARTYRDOMS of the Vatican martyr book, vol. I (Apa Epime, Isaac of Tiphre, Apa Anoub, Macarius of Antioch, Pirou and Athom …). Verified on rendered page 100 = printed p. 90: ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛ̀ⲥⲉⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ, ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲱⲣⲓⲁ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ, ⲛ̀ϫⲉ ⲁⲣⲙⲉⲛⲓⲟⲥ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲙⲏⲥ, folio marks in the margin (corpus/incoming/_logs/wboh_samples/acta1_0043_p100-100.png). The second file, actamartyrum01bale (Toronto), is the LATIN VERSIO (CSCO 44, 1908) — a meaning check, not OCR'd. The catalogue's earlier Balestri–Hyvernat row (Coptic Texts/BalHyv-Acta…, 129 pages, share unverified) is a partial scan of this same volume.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
