+@unnumberedsubsubsec Kievan notes
+
+@cindex note heads, ancient
+
+For Kievan square notation, the appropriate note head style needs
+to be chosen and the flags and stems need to be turned off.
+This is accomplished by calling the @code{\kievanOn} function,
+which sets the appropriate properties of the note head, stems,
+and flags. Once Kievan note heads are not needed, these
+properties can be reverted by calling the @code{\kievanOff}
+function.
+
+The Kievan final note, which usually comes at the end of a piece
+of music, may be selected by setting the duration to
+@code{\longa}. The Kievan recitative mark, used to indicate
+the chanting of several syllables on one note, may be selected by
+setting the duration to @code{\breve}. The following example
+demonstrates the various Kievan note heads:
+
+@lilypond[quote,fragment,ragged-right,verbatim]

+
+@knownissues
+LilyPond automatically determines if the stem up or stem down
+form of a note is drawn. When setting chant in square notation,
+however, it is customary to have the stems point in the same
+direction within a single melisma. This can be done manually by
+setting the @code{direction} property of the @code{Stem} object.
+
+@node Kievan accidentals
+@unnumberedsubsubsec Kievan accidentals
+
+@cindex accidentals
+
+The @code{kievan} style for accidentals is selected with the
+@code{glyph-name-alist} property of the grob @code{Accidental}.
+The @code{kievan} style provides a sharp and a flat sign
+different from the default style. There is no natural sign
+in Kievan notation. The sharp sign is not used in Synodal music
+but may occur in earlier manuscripts. It has been included
+primarily for the sake of compatibility.

+
+@cindex Ligatures
+
+Notes within a Kievan melisma are usually placed close to each other
+and the melismata separated by whitespace. This is done to allow
+the chanter to quickly identify the melodic structures of Znamenny
+chant. In LilyPond, melismata are treated as ligatures and the
+spacing is implemented by the @code{Kievan_ligature_engraver}.
+
+When the @code{KievanVoice} and @code{KievanStaff} contexts are used,
+the @code{Kievan_ligature_engraver} is enabled by default. In other
+contexts, it can be invoked by replacing the @code{Ligature_bracket_engraver}
+with the @code{Kievan_ligature_engraver} in the layout block:
+
+@example
+\layout @{
+ \context @{
+ \Voice
+ \remove "Ligature_bracket_engraver"
+ \consists "Kievan_ligature_engraver"

+@}
+@end example
+
+The spacing between the notes within a Kievan ligature can be controlled
+by setting the @code{padding} property of the @code{KievanLigature}.
+
+The following example demonstrates the use of Kievan ligatures:
