| Description | Animal products are essential source of matierials for medieval written culture. Whether speaking of the skins from which the parchment was made or the books were bound in, or the bees wax for verifying the charters with a seal, or even seashells for storage of paints, medieval scribes and artists used many materials of animal origin, and without those, the creation of beautiful manuscripts or charters containing historically valuable information, would not be possible. |
