Sound Of Creation
@soundofcreation
This appears to be an ancient illustrated musical score, one of six remarkable parchments from Egypt, dating back to the 5th to 7th centuries C.E. The parchments seem to depict a unique form of musical notation, where the colors of the circles indicate pitch and their sizes denote duration. The writings on the parchment are in Coptic an Afro-Asian language spoken in Egypt until at least the 17th century. Astonishing!
