Script:
Hand 1. (ff. 1r–80v, 181r–184v, 186r–188v) A typical scholarly Renaissance hand writing in a minute module in light brown ink, now partly faded and hardly legible; astrological/nomical signs are employed frequently, as well as abbreviations; despite the compression, some letters are flourished in their ligatures and others a little enlarged and made more prominent, such as Taus and Etas. In the tables, the minute letters appear compressed in the sense of their height. Hand 2. (ff. 29r–29v, 179r–179r) A less orderly and more wavy hand; the ink is darker, the module slightly bigger; it is probably also responsible for the correction at (f. 1v). On (f. 27v) a scholion perhaps in a different hand. Hand 3. (ff. 81r–107v, 126r–148v, 150r–157r, 196r–197v) Set in a different framework for the tables, in a slightly darker ink, is also very small in module but slightly squatter in appearance; the Ksi is drawn in many curves; it is difficult to say if it is the same hand writing all these tables, but in any case the style is very homogeneous. Hand 4. (ff. 111r–124r) Still more minute and compressed, with a forward motion impressed to it by the slanting chis whose descending strokes echo the acute accents sprinkled above the line. The Gamma is often looped while the ligature Epsilon-Ksi is sometimes enlarged out of proportion (e.g. on (f. 117r)). The symbol for sun is used most frequently. This scribe occasionally displays the Epsilon ‘ad ombelico’. He uses simple initials enlarged in the margin; cf. the hand of Isidore Cardinal of Kiev, RGK, vol. 1, no. 155. Hand 5. (ff. 158r–162v, 166r–178v, 187v–188v) Very similar to Hand A , though the writing of these tables is less precise, even somewhat sloppy. Hand 6. (ff. 180v, 185r, 189r–194v, 195r–195v) Perhaps different hands, one writing a very spidery small minuscule, but relaxing into more cursive an relaxed segments. Another writhing in a darker brown-grey ink. Unclear.
Collation:
Original composition not possible to reconstruct due to extensive restoration.

Notes
Probably mid-15th c. origin. A terminus post quem is assured by way of Michael Chrysococces’s text on ff. 111r–124r, which was composed in 1435.
Ownership:
Owner’s note in Erik Benzelius the Younger’s hand on f. 1bv: Ex bibliotheca Er. Benzelii Er. filii. The signature ‘Lucretii Palladii’ on f. 1r may point to an earlier ownership.
Acquisition:
Purchased by Linköping Diocesan Library in 1757 as part of the Benzelius book collection.

Book binding
Binding:
Restored and rebound in white parchment by the Swedish National Archives bookbindery in 1952. Binding dimensions: 215 × 155 × 60 mm. Condition: In the process of rebinding the volume, the bookblock was also repaired; the leaves, badly frayed at the edges and fragile, were all remounted on silk gauze.
Decoration
The rubrication of titles, subtitles, and initials has in most cases faded to all but total illegibility. This applies also for the outlines and details in many of the tables. There are traces of decorated initials e.g. at ff. 7v, 11v, 22r, 23r.
