This brief note proposes a new identification for a fragment of one of the Psalm manuscripts from Qumran. On the basis of material conditions—but above all else, the distinctive paleography of the script—4Q98c (4QPst) should be considered as part of the same manuscript known as 4Q85 (4QPsc). If this identification is correct, the latter now contains material known from the second half of the (proto-)mt Psalter, increasing the plausibility that it once contained the entire book of Psalms.
