Gothic Language FragmentsThe Gothic language is only attested in a handful of codices, mainly parts of the Bible translation of Ulfilas. - Codex Argenteus (and Speyer fragment): parts of the gospels, 188 leaves.
- Codex Ambrosianus (Milan) (and Codex Taurinensis) five parts, totalling 193 leaves.
- Codex Gissensis (Gieen) one leaf, fragments of Luke 23-24. found in Egypt in 1907, destroyed by water damage in 1945.
- Codex Carolinus: Wolfenbttel, 4 leaves, fragments of Romans 11-15.
- Codex Vaticanus Latinus 5750: 3 leaves, pages 57/58, 59/60 and 61/62 of the Skeireins.
- Naples Deed: papyrus fragment of 551, four signatures
- Arezzo Deed: papyrus fragment (now lost), one signature
There were other reports of discovery of parts of Ulfila's bible. Heinrich May in 1968 claimed 12 leaves of a palimpsest containing parts of the gospel of Matthew had been discovered in England. The claim was never substantiated. See also External links - http://www.wulfila.be/gothic/manuscripts/
