Mihanović’s fragment of the Acts of the Apostles (Serbo-Croatian: Михановићев одломак Апостолa, Mihanovićev odlomak Apostola) is one of the oldest preserved Glagolitic manuscripts written in Old Church Slavonic, a passage from the Acts of the Apostles.
It is considered, on the basis of some language features (e.g. replacement of the letter f with the letter p , i.e. Stepan instead of Stefan) and the Glagolitic alphabet itself, that it originated at the end of 11th century or early 12th century in Bosnia or Zeta or Zahumlje.
[1] The manuscript itself consists of two sheets of parchment, 24 cm × 18.5 cm in size, on which is inscribed the part of Acts of the Apostles, according to the Eastern Orthodox rite and is related, in place and time of origin, to the so-called Gršković's fragment of the Acts of the Apostles.
[2] Manuscript was found glued on the cover of a 1262 Serbian transcript of Ilovička krmčija, Zakonopravilo, in the collection of Cyrillic manuscripts of Antun Mihanović,[2] and is considered the oldest preserved transcript, collection of civil and ecclesiastical regulations of the Byzantine Empire, which was translated by Saint Sava at the beginning of the 13th century.
