Summary/Abstract: Ten early 16th century Athonite documents are preserved in the library of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in Jerusalem, in Codex Hierosolymitanus no. 370 of the Manuscript Collection of the Holy Sepulture (Panagios Taphos). This manuscript is a miscellany consisting of various texts. It was copied around the mid – 16th century by the Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem Germanos, who added to it fragments deriving from older paper manuscripts. Today it consists of 481 folia, of which 114, 200 – 215, 328 – 331, 340, 341, 425 – 428, and 472 – 474 are blank. The copies of the 10 Athonite documents are scattered between ff. 154 and 378. Photographs of Codex no. 370 are freely accessible online in the site of the Library of Congress of the USA. The existence of Athonite documents in this manuscript was first announced in 1891 by A. Papaopoulos-Kerameus.
