'''''Vetus Latina''''' '''manuscripts''' are [[Biblical manuscript|handwritten copies]] of the earliest [[Bible translations into Latin|Latin translations of the Bible]] (including the [[Hebrew Bible]]/[[Old Testament]], the [[Deuterocanonical books]] and the [[New Testament]]), known as the "''[[Vetus Latina]]''" or "Old Latin". They originated prior to Jerome from multiple translators, and differ from [[Vulgate manuscripts]] which follow the late-4th-century Latin translation by [[Jerome]].
 
''Vetus Latina'' and Vulgate manuscripts continued to be copied alongside each other until the [[Late Middle Ages]]; many copies of the Bible or parts of it have been found using a mixture of ''Vetus Latina'' and [[Vulgate]] readings.
