| Collection History: | The Leipzig portion was purchased by Steindorff Box XII (from Leipzig database 24/9/20188). The manuscript belongs to the oriental part of the private collection of Karl Wessely, probably acquired in 1904 in Paris. After the death of Wessely the whole collection was inherited by Theodor Hopfner, who sorted the manuscripts and sold them to the Prague University Library. The oriental part of the collection has found its place in the Oriental Institute (information from Z. Vítková (16/9/2024)). |
