Another important artifact for the Collection, the Visigothic style Latin Psalter kept at Mt Sinai since the 9th Century. (note although we see the 9th century mentioned, we have proof the Visigothic Prince of Gothia, Raymond IV, led the largest armies of the first Crusade, and no-doubt carried such Psalters. As we have demonstrated in previous articles, it is more based in fact that he advised the formation of the Templar order. ) https://www.persee.fr/doc/scrip_0036-9772_1955_num_9_2_2620
