General description
This theological work, entitled ‘Cyril’ (ቄርሎስ Qērellos) in the Ethiopian tradition, consists of a standard set of writings by Cyril of Alexandria and his contemporary ecclesiastical counterparts including Theodotus of Ancyra, Severus of Synnada, Acacius of Melitene, Juvenal of Jerusalem, Rheginus of Constantina, Eusebius of Heraclea Pontica, Firmus of Caesarea, John of Antioch, Epiphanius of Salamis, Proclus of Cyzicus, Severian of Gabala, and Gregory of Neocaesarea. Translated from Greek in the mid-first millennium, this work offers a unique witness to a number of otherwise lost patristic works. Based upon a note on a front flyleaves seeming to pertain to the convent of the Egyptian monk Serapion, it is most likely that this particular manuscript came from Egypt, perhaps originally belonging to an Ethiopian monk resident at one of the monasteries there.
