A case study from Christian Medieval Central Asia’, which aimed at providing a comprehensive understanding of scribal habits and approaches used in the c.1,000 fragments of Syriac and Sogdian manuscripts in Syriac script found in the oasis of Turfan (present-day Xinjiang, China), more precisely at the site of Bulayïq, at the beginning of the last century. This article focuses on the devices used to manage the writing space at the end of the line with a particular attention to a type of diplé used as line filler and found in a single hagiographic manuscript (E24) that resembles both the Greek and the Coptic manuscript traditions; as well as to a line filler that in this corpus is attested only in some Syriac fragments with liturgical content (Hudra D—Hudra DD—MIK III 45).
