    For the purposes of this compilation, as in philology,


    a "codex" refers to a manuscript book published from the late Antiquity period
    through the Middle Ages. (The majority of the books in both the list of manuscripts
    and list of illuminated manuscripts are codices.) More modern works that include
    "codex" as part of their name are not listed here. The following codices are usually
    named for their most famous resting-places, such as a city or library.
