Every modern reader of Syriac is familiar with the signs indicating "qussaya" and "rukkaka" on the bgdkpt letters; they are frequent on every printed or written page. My present study is based upon an examination, necessarily summary of over eighty mss., most of them dated, in the British Library at London. It seeks to trace the gradual development of these symbols through their application by copyists in these mss." (pp. 13-14)
