Note

The previous text, in the same hand, is dated ͵ζριηʹ Μαΐῳ βʹ ἡμέρα 8η τῆς Μεσοπεντηκοστῆς [7118 (= 1610), 2 May, the 8th day of mid-Pentecost] and signed Ἀβεσσαλὼμ Ἱερομόναχος in monocondyle (Lambros (1900)). Illuminated headband on fol. 97r. date at the end of Syntipas: ζρκαʹ μηνὶ Ὀκτωβρίου. αʹ [1621, October 1st]. According to Fonkić (1971), the monocondyle of Abessalom also occurs in Mosq. Synod. gr. 298 (Vlad. 436), on fol. 350 (end of part 1), making it likely that at least Syntipas in Ivir. 205 was copied in Mount Athos from Mosq. Synod. gr. 298 (the latter was purchased from the Iviron monastery in the 1650s by Arsenii Sukhanov for the new Patriarchal Library).
