cistercian's Issues

Typo

cistercian/cistercian.dtx

Line 62 in 9390092

Cistercian numerals are a nearly forgotten number system which was invented in the late mediaevals by Cistercian monks, which at that time were one of the most influential congregations with monasteries spreading over most of Europe.

Spotted a funny typo: It should be medieval instead of mediaeval.
