An illuminated manuscript is a book written and decorated completely by hand. Illuminated manuscripts were among the most precious objects produced in the Middle Ages and the early Renaissance, primarily in monasteries and courts. Society's rulers--emperors, kings, dukes, cardinals, and bishops--commissioned the most splendid manuscripts.

the handwriting is so neat
Neat, my dear (insert real name here), is an understatement. You are right, though.
thats really awesome i didn't think they could erase mistakes back then but all it took was scratching it off
+clpfox more than just erasing mistakes, since parchment was expensive, sometimes entire works would be scraped or washed clean so that the parchment could be used again.
Intresting Vedio..in India instead of leather they were using Palm Leaf
WOW! Absoluutely fascinating and admirable! How wonderful to see so many forms of art and crafts come together: animal husbandry, calligraphy, visual arts, binding, etc.! And how wonderful that some amazing people are able to recreate the process so accurately! Bravo!
