Summary: CCCC MS 149 is a manuscript of the Historia Iosephi de bello iudaico et excidio urbis Hierosolymitanae, pseudonymously attributed to the second-century historian, Hegesippus, as was common in the Middle Ages. On the grounds of its script it can be dated to the first half of the twelfth century. A partially erased ex libris inscription shows that it was at a foundation dedicated to St Andrew, and the Augustinian priory of Hexham has been suggested. The manuscript has flyleaves from a mid-twelfth-century Italian legal manuscript. According to James, fragments from the same manuscript survive in Cambridge, Gonville and Caius College MS 285, and in Cambridge, Pembroke College MS 7, a manuscript which Robert Grosseteste (d. 1253) gave to Bury St Edmunds in exchange for another.
