Definition
Of, relating to, or being an ancient manuscript or document that is written on one side only.
Etymology
From 'anopisthograph' + '-ic' suffix, creating the adjectival form used in paleography and manuscript studies. This technical term describes the physical characteristics of ancient texts.
Kelly Says
When scholars describe a document as 'anopisthographic,' they're making a statement about ancient economics—it means the writer had enough material that they didn't need to write on the back! Expensive parchment was sometimes reused, but waste papyrus got left blank.
