Description

• Contents: Nicephorus' Chorographia brevis (1r-11v). Georgius Syncellus' Chronicle (12r-61r). Theophanes' Chorography (61v-316v).
  The volume contains three historical treatises, among which a previously overlooked but complete manuscript of Theophanes' celebrated Chorography. The codex was incorrectly dated, but was re-assessed by Nigel Wilson, who established its position in the stemma accurately. The style of script may be dated to the last two or three decades of the 9th century. This makes the Christ Church manuscript the oldest extant.
