History

Currently it is dated by the INTF to the 10th century.

The manuscript came from Italy. It once belonged to H. van der Merk. In 1712 it was in Hague.

The manuscript once belonged to Conrad von Uffenbach (hence name Fragmentum Uffenbachianum), then to J. C. Wolf, and after his death in 1739 to the Public Library of Hamburg. It was very imperfectly described by Maius, Wettstein, Griesbach, and Bengel. Tregelles collated its text twice. Constantin von Tischendorf edited its text in 1855 (with 5 errors) and in 1861 corrected 5 errors.

The codex now is located in the University of Hamburg (Cod. 50), in Hamburg.

    A man acquainted with history may, in some respect, be said to have lived from the beginning of the world, and to have been making continual additions to his stock of knowledge in every century.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    Properly speaking, history is nothing but the crimes and misfortunes of the human race.
