In my view this is sufficient academic publication for a rewrite of the article on the lines of Prof. Bausi's resume. "The dating of Abbā Garimā 2 in particular would also make it the most ancient Christian manuscript decorated with paintings, even older than the famous Rabbula Four Gospels book of the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana of Firenze" TomHennell (talk) 17:39, 4 February 2014 (UTC)


 * The fellow apparently never heard about the Codex Alexandrinus, Codex Washingtonianus, and a bunch of other MSS. "The period between 390 and 660" is a pretty wide span. --Ghirla-трёп- 11:38, 5 February 2014 (UTC)


 * The wide range is caused by combining two ranges, one for each manuscript. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.71.8 (talk) 12:06, 5 February 2014 (UTC)


 * I suppose the argument would be that the Codex Washingtonianus is not itself illustrated; rather it is the covers that are painted. While the Codex Alexandrinus has decorative tailpieces rather than full-page miniatures. A more precise counter-example might be the Cotton Genesis - if this is assumed to be a Christian manuscript. But the statement in the article is simply a quote from the source. TomHennell (talk) 12:14, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Gärima
If "Gärima" is the correct spelling, then both this page and Abba Garima Monastery should be re-titled (or at least have a note added). Placing a few diaereses in the article without explanation just confuses the reader. Srnec (talk) 02:17, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
