By Dr. Frank Benjamin

A useful resource for anyone researching illuminated books, eastern Christianity, Ethiopia, late antique art and history, and late antiquity.

There are two old Ethiopic gospel books known as the Garima Gospels. The earlier of the two, Garima 2, is thought to be the earliest full illuminated Christian manuscript still in existence.
Together, the two manuscripts serve as the primary source for the Ethiopic translation of the Gospels and have been used as proof texts by Rochus Zuurmond to produce critical editions of the Ethiopic Gospels. Their artwork is intimately tied to the gospel texts written in Syriac, Armenian, Greek, and Georgian, as well as the art of late-antique (Coptic) Egypt, Nubia, and Himyar (Yemen).
