History.
The manuscript is dated on the palaeographical ground to the 5th-century. Probably it was brought from Sinai by Constantin von Tischendorf. Gregory catalogued it as Uncial 067 on his list. After re-examination made by Pasquale Orsini it is clear that it is different manuscript.
In 2010 it was catalogued by the INTF separately as 0321.
The manuscript was examined by Tischendorf, who edited its text in 1846. It was also examined and described by Eduard de Muralt, Kurt Treu, and recently by Pasquale Orsini.
It is currently housed at the Russian National Library (Suppl. Gr. 6 III, fol. 10-12) in Saint Petersburg.
