✖Descriptions of (predominantly) Christian manuscripts from Ethiopia and Eritrea are the core of the Beta maṣāḥǝft project. We (1) gradually encode descriptions from printed catalogues, beginning from the historical ones, (2) incorporate digital descriptions produced by other projects, adjusting them wherever possible, and (3) produce descriptions of previously unknown and/or uncatalogued manuscripts. The encoding follows the TEI XML standards (check our guidelines).
Shelf marks (full list)Manuscripts (search)List of Digitized ManuscriptsCatalogues EncodedInscriptions
✖We identify each unit of content in every manuscript. We consider any text with an independent circulation a work, with its own identification number within the Clavis Aethiopica (CAe). Parts of texts (e.g. chapters) without independent circulation (univocally identifiable by IDs assigned within the records) or recurrent motifs as well as documentary additional texts (identified as Narrative Units) are not part of the CAe. You can also check the list of different types of text titles or various Indexes available from the top menu.
Clavis Aethiopica (Works)Narrative UnitsStudies
The clavis is a repertory of all known works relevant for the Ethiopian and Eritrean tradition; the work being defined as any text with an independent circulation. Each work (as well as known recensions where applicable) receives a unique identifier in the Clavis Aethiopica (CAe). In the filter search offered here one can search for a work by its title, a keyword, a short quotation, but also directly by its CAe identifier - or, wherever known and provided, identifier used by other claves, including Bibliotheca Hagiographica Graeca (BHG), Clavis Patrum Graecorum (CPG), Clavis Coptica (CC), Clavis Apocryphorum Veteris Testamenti (CAVT), Clavis Apocryphorum Novi Testamenti (CANT), etc. The project additionally identifies Narrative Units to refer to text types, where no clavis identification is possible or necessary. Recurring motifs or also frequently documentary additiones are assigned a Narrative Unit ID, or thematically clearly demarkated passages from various recensions of a larger work. This list view shows the documentary collections encoded by the project Ethiopian Manuscript Archives (EMA) and its successor EthioChrisProcess - Christianization and religious interactions in Ethiopia (6th-13th century) : comparative approaches with Nubia and Egypt, which aim to edit the corpus of administrative acts of the Christian kingdom of Ethiopia, for medieval and modern periods. See also the list of documents contained in the additiones in the manuscripts described by the Beta maṣāḥǝft project . Works of interest to Ethiopian and Eritrean studies.
✖While encoding manuscripts, the project Beta maṣāḥǝft aims at creating an exhaustive repertory of art themes and techniques present in Ethiopian and Eritrean Christian tradition. See our encoding guidelines for details. Two types of searches for aspects of manuscript decoration are possible, the decorations filtered search and the general keyword search.
Index of decorationsArt KeywordsIlluminations
The filtered search for decorations, originally designed with Jacopo Gnisci, looks at decorations and their features only. The filters on the left are relative only to the selected features, reading the legends will help you to figure out what you can filter. For example you can search for all encoded decorations of a specific art theme, or search the encoded legends. If the decorations are present, but not encoded, you will not get them in the results. If an image is available, you will also find a thumbnail linking to the image viewer. [NB: The Index of Decorations currently often times out, we are sorry for the inconvenience.] You can search for particular motifs or aspects, including style, also through the keyword search. Just click on "Art keywords" and "Art themes" on the left to browse through the options. This is a short cut to a search for all those manuscripts which have miniatures of which we have images.
✖We create metadata for all places associated with the manuscript production and circulation as well as those mentioned in the texts used by the project. The encoding of places in Beta maṣāḥǝft will thus result in a Gazetteer of the Ethiopian tradition. We follow the principles established by Pleiades and lined out in the Syriaca.org TEI Manual and Schema for Historical Geography which allow us to distinguish between places, locations, and names of places. See also Help page fore more guidance.
PlacesRepositories
This tab offers a filtrable list of all available places. Geographical references of the type "land inhabited by people XXX" is encoded with the reference to the corresponding Ethnic unit (see below); ethnonyms, even those used in geographical contexts, do not appear in this list. Repositories are those locations where manuscripts encoded by the project are or used to be preserved. While they are encoded in the same way as all places are, the view offered is different, showing a list of manuscripts associated with the repository.
✖We create metadata for all persons (and groups of persons) associated with the manuscript production and circulation (rulers, religious authorities, scribes, donors, and commissioners) as well as those mentioned in the texts used by the project. The result will be a comprehensive Prosopography of the Ethiopian and Eritrean tradition. See also Help page for more guidance.
Persons and groupsEthnic units
We encode persons according to our Encoding Guidelines. The initial list was inherited from the Encyclopaedia Aethiopica, and there are still many inconsistencies that we are trying to gradually fix. We consider ethnonyms as a subcategory of personal names, even when many are often used in literary works in the context of the "land inhabited by **". The present list of records has been mostly inherited from the Encyclopaedia Aethiopica, and there are still many inconsistencies that we are trying to gradually fix.
✖This section collects some additional resources offered by the project. Select Bibliography to explore the references cited in the project records. The Indexes list different types of project records (persons, places, titles, keywords, etc). Visit Projects for information on partners that have input data directly in the Beta maṣāḥǝft database. Special ways of exploring the data are offered under Visualizations. Two applications were developed in cooperation with the project TraCES, the Gǝʿǝz Morphological Parser and the Online Lexicon Linguae Aethiopicae.

Origin

Original Location: Tāḥtāy Rubā Māryām↗

Patriarch of Alexandria John (Yoḥannǝs) (check the viewer7v l.1) and King ʾIyāsu (check the viewer7v l.5) are mentioned in Text I. Hence, the book may be dated either to the time of Patriarch John XVI (1676-1718) and King ʾIyasu I (1682-1706) or to the time of John XVII (1727-45) and ʾIyasu II (1730-55). The latter dating is more probable since a scribe called Zawalda Māryām was active around mid-18th century.

Provenance

Owned by Mazgaba Śǝllāse, Walatta Hāymānot and Walatta Giyorgis (s. Additio 3). The reference to the monastery Gunda Gunde in Additio 1 hints to the possible identification of Mazgaba Śǝllāse as the head of that monastery in the second half of the 17th cent. (s. EAE III).

    Text in Gǝʿǝz

    Text in Amharic

    The note is written in Gǝʿǝz, with some Amharic words, probably not much later than the main text. It mentions "ʾasmat of Gʷǝdägʷǝdi", apparently referring to the monastery Gunda Gunde. The handwriting is rather fine (slender letters with big loops) but slightly uneven (due to the lack of ruling). The hand is most probably the same as hand b. A portion of the text on the right side of is difficult to read.

State of preservation

deficient

Condition

A part of the front board, the back board and the spine cover are missing. Some fols. are stained with water and damaged by insects or mice. Bifolios 67-75 and 68-76 are broken along the fold. The bottom right corner of check the viewer47 is of irregular shape; probably it is a part of a hole of considerable size. check the viewer55 is originally trimmed in the upper and mid right part, probably along a hole and a previous cut. check the viewer149 is originally trimmed in the upper part. Holes are carefully amended on check the viewer74 , 165, 166.

Binding

Two wooden boards, but only a piece of the front wooden board (about 30%) has been preserved. Along the right edge holes are visible, probably used for attaching the missing part of the board. One pair of sewing stations (quires I-X with single thread, quires XI-B with a pair of single thread).

Binding decoration

Small holes near the head and tail of the codex visible in the centre fold of some quires (e.g., V, XII; XIII, XV), occasionally with short threads (e.g., X, XVI). The binding of the text block and its attachment to the boards were several times crudely repaired by means of threads and strings made of various textiles. ff. 3, 57 and 58 are crudely attached to the quires.
