Digital facsimile: A highly talismanic Ethiopian magic scroll

This report provides scanned images of a non-figurative Ethiopian magic scroll for Yemeru Walda-Ab. Its imagery is of the diagrammatic type and has high talismanic density. Brief curatorial notes are included, including analyses of client name insertions, one of the drawings and some voces magicae, but the main intention is to provide high-resolution (zoomable) images that will allow others virtual access to the artifact.
