Collection History: | Donated to former Bibliothèque des histoire des religions (now Institut d’histoire des christianismes orientaux) by Mme. de la Rochefoucauld in 1978, had inherited them from her Egyptian family members; thence given by Prof. Antoine Guillaumont (at the time chair of “Christianisme et gnose”), and in charge of the library, gave them to Michel Pezin (d. 27 may 2005) (Boud’hors and Tardieu 2006: p. 16). |

Notes/Discussion: | The literary texts resemble those from the White Monastery (Boud’hors and Tardieu 2006: p. 16). Prayer of Shenoute is almost identical to Ethiopic Prayer of Pachomius; near parallel in BKU III.2 386 (Pezin, 1988). |
