Origin

late-fifteenth century^{notBefore: 1450
notAfter: 1500}

Provenance

In the course of cataloguing for the EMIP↗ project in the Tweed Collection, it became clear both to Professor Getatchew Haile and to Ted Erho of the Hill Museum and Manuscript Library (HMML)↗ that it was the very manuscript microfilmed in 1976 by the Ethiopian Manuscript Microfilm Library at Dabra Libanos Monastery as EMML Project Number 6533. Finding no good explanation of how the manuscript could have left the country legally, Howard University School of Divinity (HUSD)↗ determined to return the manuscript to Dabra Libanos↗ . With the assistance of Washington DC cleric and HUSD alumnus, Memher Zebene Lemma, the manuscript was returned in January 2016^{when: 2016-01-01}.
