N2  - An interdisciplinary approach to the study of manuscript traditions is here applied to the analysis of the leaves from the White
Monastery, one of the greatest centres of literary production in Late Antique Egypt. In the framework of the ?PAThs? project, archaeometric analyses complement the information pieced together by a range of disciplines in the field of humanities. The use
of different complementary analytical techniques provides information on the type of ink used and its elemental composition,
unveiling interesting details regarding the materials and methodology of manufacturing of writing media. Moreover, this contribution takes a step forward and discusses the possible existence of a regional arrangement in the elemental composition revealed
in the inks studied.
