Aksumite Collection

The Aksumite Collection is a Geʽez manuscript containing a collection of texts that represent the earliest discovered canon-law and liturgical texts in the Geʽez language and in Ethiopian historiography. The manuscript can be dated using paleography to the 13th century at the latest, but represents a collection of translations of texts from Greek into Geʽez that were made during Late Antiquity, sometime between the fifth and sixth centuries AD, or to the seventh at the latest, during the period of the Kingdom of Aksum.
