check the viewerFols 117r and following Chronology from the creation of the world up to the death of Susǝnyos , ascribed to Giyorgis Walda ʿAmid author . While the fact that this list ends with the death of Susǝnyos need not necessarily lead us to accept that year as the approximate age of this manuscript, paleographic and linguistic data, too, make the middle of the 17th century a likely date for its production.
