• Certainly written in Brittany

The Breton origin of this MS, also known as 'Gospels of Saint-Pern' (where Saint-Pern < Saint Bern, i.e. Saint Paternus), is confirmed by the detailed colophon at fol. 173v, where the names of the scribe and his abbot (at Saint-Pern?)—respectively Gleuhitr and Loeisguoret—are mentioned (cf. PMSB 319; Deuffic 2008: 102; ILLB In26, p. 74). It is possible that this Gospel-book was written by Gleuhitr at Saint-Pern, but we cannot rule out that it was written elsewhere in Brittany (perhaps at Saint-Méen de Gaël, as suggested in Guillotel 1985: 29 and Deuffic 2008: 102) and was later offered by the scribe to the church of Saint-Pern (the colophon is somewhat ambiguous on this point).
