De Bellis is a historical Roman Calligraphy font by Michael Scarpitti. It
is based on the sole surviving fragment of a lost Latin work, de Bellis
Macedonicis. The sample it is based on is the only surviving example of
Roman Literary Cursive, which has elements of both rustica and uncial
lettering. The date is uncertain, but probably 2nd-4th centuries AD. The
original sample was written with a reed pen held at about a 35 degree
angle.
