On folio 77b it contains note written by Athanasius, Bishop of Apotheke or Abutij, A.D. 1792, states that the original date of the manuscript was Mart 1192. This date is also repeated fol. 264b.[2]

Horner saw the manuscript in 1892 (Matthew and Mark). He used it in his edition of the Bohairic New Testament as a basis for the text of the Gospels.[6]
