Summary/Abstract: This article presents connections between palaeography of the textual ductus (stylistic tendencies) and the writing of the notation in the 12th and 13th centuries. A number of identifications of the sources that are the work of only one scribe are discussed, and the links between groups of manuscripts are established. In the first part of the paper the connections between several groups of manuscripts are pointed out: the sticherarion Rizov F1650k/op4/3 and the heirmologion Lavra Beta 32; the catenas on Paul’s Epistles Oxford Magd. MS. Gr. 7 and the praxapostol Dujcev gr. 369; the sticherarion Sinai gr. 1218, the psaltikon Patmos 201 and the tipikon Patmos 265. The newly discovered source (Sticherarion Rizov F 1650k/op4/3) containing the earliest stages of both types of Palaeo Byzantine notation (Coislin I and Chartres I) is presented. A hypothesis uniting the sources on the basis of the medieval scribe’s notion to prepare a standardized service corpus is suggested.
