The most common double documents, which are partly sealed, have been discussed: six-witness contracts, some types of notary contracts and a few receipts. A fourth type of double document are royal oaths [see List Nos. 62, 64]. They were doubtless sealed by the person who swore and wrote down the oath in the presence of the beneficiary. Afterwards, he sealed the scriptura interior and handed the document over to the beneficiary, who was no longer able to alter the oath.

The above-mentioned contracts were all commitments between at least two persons. But even unilateral documents could be double-documents with one part sealed, such as petitions (32) [see List Nos. 59, 63] or orders [see List Nos. 60-61]. The upper part was, of course, sealed by the petitioner or the writer of the order, respectively.
