Kaynak	Sold in 1922 by Leipzig-based antiquarian, book seller, and publisher Karl Wilhelm Hiersemann (1854-1924) to the collector Arnold Mettler-Specker (1867-1945) and deposited for a while in the University Library of Zurich under the shelfmark Or. 85. Purchased by H.P. Kraus in 1948 at auction from Sotheby's & Co. Since some manuscripts of Katalog Hiersemann 500 demonstrably came from the collection of the German collector Friedrich Grote (1861-1922), it is highly likely that this manuscript comes from this source as well, which means that it is again highly likely that it originally hailed from St Catherine's Monastery, Sinai, Egypt. --Via Peter Tarras.
