History
The manuscript once belonged to John Sambucky (together with codex 124). It was presented to Octavio Ferrari in Milano in 1562.[3] It was examined by Treschow, Alter, Andreas Birch, and Burgon. Alter used it in his edition of the Greek New Testament (vol. 2, pp. 741-788). Birch collated some of its readings. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1887.[3]
The manuscript was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[6]
Formerly it was designated by the symbols 63a and 68p. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 404 to it.[1]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Austrian National Library (Theol. gr. 313) in Vienna.[2]
