Provenance
Early provenance unknown. Probably in the library of St. John of Prodromos (see library shelfmark no. [gamma] 14 on the inside front board), as the property of the monk Makarios. It was probably rebound in the monastery, like many other manuscripts, and remained there until 1917, when it was removed together with most of the manuscripts in the library.
Source acquisition
Purchase by John H. Scheide from antiquarian Joseph Baer in 1922.
