Notes

Contents:

ff. 215r-248v: a vita of Nicholas Archimandrite of Sion.
This vita is listed in the BHG under the lemma of Nicholas, bishop of Myra (BHG 1347). This may be because the cult of saint Nicholas of Myra was often, according to the ODB, conflated with saint Nicholas of Sion’s (see electronic references for the ODB entry).

For the contents of folios 249r-291r which include various smaller works by the patriarch Methodios and Andrew of Crete, please refer to Devreesse’s catalogue on p. 359 (listed under the bibliography tab) or Pinakes although Pinakes does not list all the works individually.
