This is the first dataset version of the corpora used in **TRIDIS** (*Tria Digita Scribunt*) which is a series of Handwriting Text Recognition models trained on semi-diplomatic transcriptions 
from medieval and Early Modern Manuscripts.

The dataset involves 4k pages of manuscripts and is suitable for work on documentary manuscripts, that is, manuscripts arising  from legal, administrative, and memorial practices such as registers, feudal books, charters, proceedings, comptability more commonly from the Late Middle Ages (13th century and onwards).
