s. XV¹ (in or before 1444 for the core of the MS, with additions from the second half of the 15^th c. on f. 66v-71).

Or.:

University of Prague; the MS is glossed by Johannes Andree Schindel, who attended Johannes Borotin’s lectures on Ptolemy’s Quadripartitum in Prague in 1444, evidently with this MS in front of him (cf. f. 73r: ‘1444 die Martis in die Felicis in Pincis, magister Joh<annes> Borot<in> incepit legere’ and f. 145v (bottom): ‘Anno domini 1444 currente 10 die Decembris, die Iovis, magister Ioh<annes> Bor<otin> finivit dominum Ptolomeum’; the same glossator also included horoscopes for 1444 on f. 88r, 88v, 99v, 124v and 134r, and mentions the year 1444 on f. 118v, as well as Prague and Bohemia, e.g. on f. 84v: ‘Ante annos 30 Prage et per Bohemiam multe sunt vise mulieres…’); the same Borotin had attended Schindel’s lectures on the Almagest some 30 years earlier (cf. MS Prague, APH, O. I (1585)).

Prov.:

the MS was donated to the University of Cracow in 1489 by Blasius de Casimiria, student in Cracow from 1452 onwards (f. 1r: ‘Magister Blasius de Kazimirz, sacre theologie baccalarius, hunc librum dedit pro Universitate Cracoviensi ac incremento studii eiusdem. Oretur pro eo. Hoc fecit anno domini 1489’).
