History
The manuscript has inelegantly written by a monk James from Mount Sinai.[2] It came from the Pantokratoros monastery at Mount Athos and belonged to Richard Bentley (as Minuscule 477).
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener, who thoroughly it examined and collated. Scrivener published its text in 1852.[5]
It is currently housed at the Trinity College (B.X. 16) in Cambridge.[1]
