Description
The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 452 parchment leaves (25.7 cm by 18 cm) with only one lacunae (Matthew 1:6-15). Leaves were split in two volumes (211 + 241 leaves). Written in one column per page, in 18 lines per page.[1] It contains Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian tables, tables of κεφαλαια, τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections, Eusebian Canons (no subscribed), subscriptions, and pictures.[2][3]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4]
History
The manuscript was written by Gregory, a monk who died in 1189.[2] It once belonged to Anthony Askew (1722-1774) (as codices 439 and 443). It was examined by Bloomfield. The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[5]
It is currently housed at the British Library (Add. 5111.5112) in London.[1]
