Early modern travel historian researching rare books at the National Library of Lithuania and curating rare books and manuscripts at the National Museum of Lithuania. Basically, if it’s old, bound, and mysterious, I’m probably digging into it.

Main text: Лета 7083 [1575] поставили крест Береза да Федор [or Федос] Павлов сын Моло — подписал [O]рлишко

This is what’s written in the ends of the cross: ЦАРЬ СЛАВЫ / ИСУСЪ ХРИСТОС / НИ/КА
