The two monasteries over which Ceolfrid presidedwere very young. The books in their libraries, the ornamentsfor the churches, everything required for the ritual and serviceof the Church (so far as we know from the Life of BenedictBiscop), had been brought from Italy or Gaul, and the possibilityof such works as these three magnificent codices being turnedout of the scriptoria of the two convents at this time seems quiteincredible. Even Dr. Hort and Mr. White, who hold this view,postulate that Ceolfrid must have brought an Italian scribe withhim; but surely three enormous pandects like these, requiringparchments of very large size and quality, could never have beenproduced in Northumbria at this time by the hands of onescribe or of two scribes.

Again, if it had been produced in Northumbria we shouldsurely have found some traces of Northumbrian art in it suchas we find in what I take to be its real Northumbrian daughter—namely, the Lindisfarne Gospels, a work of much more moderatesize, but teeming with that local colour from which the CodexAmiatinus is quite free.
