History

The manuscript was damaged by fire and water.[5] It once belonged to Henry Benzil, Archbishop of Uppsala († 1758), then to Laurence Benzelstierna, Bishop of Arosen.[3] It was described by C. Aurivill (1802),[6] collated by G. T. Pappelbaum (1815).[7] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794–1852).[8] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1887.[3]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Chis. R IV 6 (gr. 6) in Rome.[2]
