Fragment of one leaf, originally at least 33 cm wide, written in a neat W. Syriac estrangela, in three columns each 80 mm wide. The text concerns the period of the Arian controversy. "There seem to be sentences taken directly from the Tripartite history but though it may be an abridgement or a compilation it is certainly not a simple translation of part of Sozomen, Socrates or Theodoret" (Titterton). Bookplate of former owner J. Rendel Harris with his number (22). Purchased by the Harvard Semitic Museum in 1905 (accession no. 3960). Deposited by the Harvard Semitic Museum, ca. 1959.
