Abstract
The Septuagint ms. Madrid UCM 22 = 442 Rahlfs, recently recovered, was extensively reviewed by Marcus Musurus and other Hellenists in both Venice and Alcalá and used for the first complete editions of the Bible, the Aldine and the Polyglot. In this paper, I offer some palaeographic and textual arguments that support this thesis.
