Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Similar imported silk material was used in many other miters and vestments, such as another Miter from the Abbey Church of St Peter, currently in the Abegg Stiftung collection. Construction of the miter may have taken place in Germany or Austria. It was sent to the ancient Benedictine monastery of St. Peter in Salzburg, where it would be used for years to come.
