Abstract: Structured template designed to record diplomatic and documentary analysis within the methodological framework developed by The Secret Life of Writing: People, Script, and Ideas in the Iberian Peninsula (c. 900–1200) (ERC StG 850604). It provides a stable format for capturing the key features of documentary form and articulation (including layout and structural components, formulae, validation practices, and relevant contextual markers), so that observations can be made consistently and compared across documents and corpora. The template is intended as a working and standardisation tool. By guiding the analyst through a controlled set of descriptive and interpretative fields, it helps make documentary analysis transparent and traceable, supports cumulative team-based work, and facilitates reuse in both research workflows and advanced teaching contexts.
