The Codex Salmasianus is a Latin uncial manuscript named after its former owner, the French philologist Claudius Salmasius (1588–1653). According to Alexander Riese, the codex dates to the 7th or probably to the 8th century.[1]
Today it is a part of the French National Library at Paris (Codex Parisinus Latinus 10318). The Codex Salmasianus is the most important collection of minor Latin poems. It is denoted by the letter A in the editions of the Anthologia Latina (Riese 1894, Shackleton Bailey 1982) and by the letter S in most editions of the Pervigilium Veneris.
It is also named Carmina Codicis Parisini 10318 Olim Salmasiani ["Poems of the Paris Codex 10318, Formerly [belonging to] Salmasianus"].
