Two excerpts from Diodorus Siculus’ books 4 and 6 are preserved in the margins of the late 13th-century manuscript of the Odyssey Hamburg. 56 in scrin. Closer reflection about their provenance - based on the typology of the excerpts and on the methodology of the scholiast - may suggest that a manuscript of Diodorus’ second pentad was still available in Constantinople during the early Palaeologan Renaissance.

Abstract
Two excerpts from Diodorus Siculus’ books 4 and 6 are preserved in the margins of the late 13th-century manuscript of the Odyssey Hamburg. 56 in scrin. Closer reflection about their provenance - based on the typology of the excerpts and on the methodology of the scholiast - may suggest that a manuscript of Diodorus’ second pentad was still available in Constantinople during the early Palaeologan Renaissance.
