Description
Four new seats on the originals shelf and a fifth completed: 121 works and 473,084 lines, each in the language of its earliest surviving witness. The Ethiopian canon in Ge'ez, 104 works from Beta maṣāḥǝft's TEI (CC BY-SA 4.0): the Old Testament with Jubilees, the three books of Meqabyan, the Ethiopic Ezra and 4 Baruch, the New Testament, and the Sinodos canons, with R. H. Charles's Jubilees (1895) and Ascension of Isaiah (1900). The Kebra Nagast in Ge'ez. The Second Temple apocalypses and pseudepigrapha the shelf lacked, in the standard public-domain editions: the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs (Charles, 1908), the Sibylline Oracles (Geffcken, 1902), 3 Baruch (James, 1897), the Greek Apocalypses of Moses and Esdras (Tischendorf, 1866), 4 Ezra (Violet, 1910), 2 Baruch in Syriac (Kmosko, 1907), the Slavonic Apocalypse of Abraham (Tichonravov, 1863), Hebrew Ben Sira from the Cairo Genizah (Schechter and Taylor, 1899), Aristeas (Wendland, 1900) and Joseph and Aseneth (Batiffol, 1889). Euclid: the Elements in Heiberg's Greek, with the Data, the Optics and the Phaenomena. And the Ge'ez text layer of 1 Enoch (EA-CORPORA-02/20), queued since August, now seated. The first of three seatings from one request; Mesoamerica, Egypt and Balaam follow in the twenty-first, the Hermetica, Mesopotamia, the Avesta and the Rig Veda in the twenty-second. What is not seated (2 Enoch's Slavonic, Bezold's Kebra Nagast, three books of the broader canon) is named.

EA-CORPORA-20 — The Twentieth Seating: The Ethiopian Canon in Ge'ez, the Kebra Nagast, the Apocalypses and Pseudepigrapha of the Second Temple, and Euclid, Each in Its Original Language
EA-CORPORA-20 — The Twentieth Seating
MANUS, 23 October 2026: "detour for an ea-corpora searing. lets see. whats available of mayan texts? and then i dont think we have much or any deteurocanonical second temple lit - all those apocalypses. and what about the ethiopian canon? and euclid. all in original language or as close to it as possible. what else?" — "and the Egyptian book of the dead" — "and what about the fragments of the book of baalim?" — "yes yes yes to all - what a meal."
The request is seated in three seatings. This, the twentieth, holds the Ethiopian canon, the Kebra Nagast, the Second Temple apocalypses and pseudepigrapha, and Euclid, and supplies the Ge'ez text layer that the 1 Enoch seat (EA-CORPORA-02/20) had queued since 25 August. The twenty-first holds Mesoamerica (the Maya codices, the Popol Vuh, the Chilam Balam, the Rabinal Achí, the Annals of the Cakchiquels) and Egypt (the Book of the Dead, the Pyramid Texts) with the Deir ʿAlla plaster text of Balaam son of Beor; the twenty-second, the Corpus Hermeticum, Gilgamesh and the Enuma Elish, the Avesta and the Rig Veda.

- Verified locus: Genesis 1:1 — '1 በቀዳሚ ፡ ገብረ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፡ ሰማየ ፡ ወምድረ ።'
- Verified locus: Jubilees 1:1 — '1 ወኮነ ፡ በቀዳሚ ፡ ዓመት ፡ በፀአቶሙ ፡ ለደቂቀ ፡ እስራኤል ፡ እምነ ፡ ግብጽ'
- Verified locus: 1 Meqabyan 1:1 — '1 ወሀሎ፡ ብእሲ፡ ዘስመ፡ ጺሩጻይዳን፡ ፈታዊሃ፡ ለእኪይ፡'

- Verified locus: Revelation 1:1 — '1 ራእዩ፡ ለዮሐንስ፡ ዘከመ፡ ርእዮ፡ ለኢየሱስ፡ ክርስቶስ።'
- Verified locus: Charles 1895, title page — 'THE ETHIOPIC VERSION' (the text layer reads the English and the Latin apparatus; over the Ge'ez it is noise, and the scan is the witness)
- Verified locus: Charles 1900, title page — 'ASCENSION OF ISAIAH' (as above: the Ethiopic is read from the scan)
- Lines: 74,673 in 106 text files
- Scope: Every work in Beta maṣāḥǝft's Works repository tagged Old or New Testament or Bible whose edition division carries at least 200 Ethiopic characters, and the works of the Ethiopian canon the project tags otherwise (Jubilees, 1–3 Meqabyan, the Ethiopic Ezra apocalypse and the Ethiopic Ezra, 4 Baruch = Paralipomena of Jeremiah), the Sinodos canons, and three works read beside the canon (the Ascension of Isaiah, the Preaching of Peter, Yosippon). 1 Enoch, also in the canon, is seated in its own seat (EA-CORPORA-02/20, ethiopic-enoch), whose text layer this seating supplies. The Kebra Nagast is seated beside it (EA-CORPORA-20/02). The completeness of each book is Beta maṣāḥǝft's: a work's line count is in its entry, and a book edited only in part there is seated in part. Not seated (edition division present, under 200 Ethiopic characters): Introduction to the New Testament Epistles and the Revelation of John (LIT3199Introd, 0); ... as he says the names of Lofḥam (= Lot) ... (LIT7444PPLofham, 189); Amharic Psalter (LIT7743PsalterAmh, 148); Protective prayer: Psalm 90 (LIT7582PPPsalm, 131); Commentary on the Books of Kings (LIT6837CommentaryKings, 0); LIT6779Annun (LIT6779Annun, 0); Synopsis of classes (LIT1548Gessaw, 109); Four Gospels (LIT1560Gospel, 0); Ethiopic explanation of several Hebrew names (LIT5810ExplanationHebrewNames, 27); The Discourse of Dionysius on the Tribes of the Apostles (LIT5549TribesApostles, 179); The psalms of David resemble a garden... (LIT5884IntroHymnPs, 98); Protective prayer: Psalm 1:1–4 (LIT5823MagicPrayer, 183); Who is resting... (LIT5843ShortPoemMary, 118); Mark 1:23-27 (LIT7276MarkOne, 98); Introduction on the Reliability of the Gospels (LIT4875Reliability, 167); Praise of Mary (LIT2509Weddas, 73); Now you dismiss (LIT2272salota, 0). The Ethiopian Book of the Covenant (Maṣḥafa Kidān), the Didascalia (Dǝdǝsqǝlǝyā) and the Clement (Qalēmenṭos) of the broader canon carry no edition text there: QUEUED.
- Why seated: The archive holds the Hebrew Bible (Westminster Leningrad Codex), the Septuagint (Swete), the Greek New Testament and the Dead Sea Scrolls; the canon that kept Enoch and Jubilees whole, and the only one in which they survive complete, was not on the shelf. Its Old Testament is the widest of any church's: Jubilees, Enoch and the three books of Meqabyan are scripture there. The archive's Revelation line reads the apocalypses as a tradition; this is the tradition in which they were kept.

Seat 20/02 — Kebra Nagast
The Glory of the Kings in Ge'ez, from Beta maṣāḥǝft

Carl Bezold's critical edition (Kebra Nagast: Die Herrlichkeit der Könige, Abhandlungen der Königlich Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1905) is public domain and was not found in an open scan in this pass: QUEUED. Budge's English (1922) is a translation and is not seated.
- Why seated: The Ethiopian national epic of Solomon, the Queen of Sheba and their son Menelik, who carries the Ark of the Covenant to Aksum: the book that tells how the canon beside it came to Ethiopia. Seated with the canon (EA-CORPORA-20/01).

- Lines: 319,074 in 10 text files
- Scope: The Second Temple apocalypses and pseudepigrapha the archive did not hold, each in the original language of its earliest surviving witness, in the standard public-domain edition. Already on the shelf and not repeated: the Septuagint deuterocanon (Judith, Tobit, 1–4 Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach in Greek, Baruch, the Epistle of Jeremiah, Susanna, Bel, the Psalms of Solomon, the Odes with the Prayer of Manasseh) in EA-CORPORA-01/05; the Qumran Aramaic Enoch and Giants in EA-CORPORA-02/01; 1 Enoch, Jubilees, the Ascension of Isaiah, 4 Baruch and the Ethiopic Ezra in Ge'ez in EA-CORPORA-02/20 and 20/01. 2 Enoch survives only in Slavonic; the open editions found in this pass are translations (Morfill and Charles, 1896), and Sokolov's Slavonic text (Moscow, 1910) was not found in an open scan: QUEUED. Modern critical editions (Göttingen Sirach, de Jonge's Testaments, Picard's 3 Baruch, Burchard's Aseneth) are in copyright and are not seated.
- Why seated: The apocalypses between the Testaments are the archive's Revelation line before Revelation: the visions of Ezra and Baruch after the fall of the Temple, Abraham's ascent, the Sibyl's oracles, the patriarchs' last words. The Septuagint seat holds the books a canon kept; this seat holds what the canons let go, in the languages that kept them.

Seat 20/04 — Euclid
The Elements in Heiberg's Greek, with the Data, the Optics and the Phaenomena
- Editions:
- Euclid, Elements (Στοιχεῖα), books 1–13, Greek text of J. L. Heiberg (Teubner, 1883–88), Perseus Digital Library TEI tlg1799.tlg001.perseus-grc2
- Euclidis opera omnia, vol. VI: Data, cum commentario Marini et scholiis antiquis, ed. H. Menge (Leipzig: Teubner, 1896)
- Euclidis opera omnia, vol. VII: Optica, Opticorum recensio Theonis, Catoptrica, cum scholiis antiquis, ed. J. L. Heiberg (Leipzig: Teubner, 1895)
- Euclidis opera omnia, vol. VIII: Phaenomena et scripta musica, ed. H. Menge; Fragmenta, ed. J. L. Heiberg (Leipzig: Teubner, 1916)
- Licence: Public domain: Euclid, fl. c. 300 BCE. Heiberg's text (Euclidis Elementa, Leipzig: Teubner, 1883–88) and the Opera omnia volumes (1895–1916) are public domain in the United States (published before 1931). The Perseus Digital Library TEI is published under CC BY-SA 4.0 (PerseusDL/canonical-greekLit); redistributed under the same licence, attributed to Perseus. Internet Archive scans (University of Toronto copies).
- Verified locus: Elements I, definition 1 — 'σημεῖόν ἐστιν, οὗ μέρος οὐθέν.'
- Verified locus: Elements I, proposition 1 — 'ἐπὶ τῆς δοθείσης εὐθείας πεπερασμένης τρίγωνον ἰσόπλευρον συστήσασθαι.'

- Verified locus: Opera omnia VII, title — 'EUCLIDIS OPTICA,'
- Verified locus: Opera omnia VIII, title — 'PHAENOMENA ET SCRIPTA MUSICA'
- Lines: 78,978 in 4 text files
- Scope: The Elements whole in Heiberg's Greek, and the three other works of the Opera omnia that are Euclid's own: the Data, the Optics, and the Phaenomena with the musical writings. The Elements volumes of the Opera omnia (I–V, 1883–88) are the Greek of the TEI and are not doubled here; Heath's English (1908) is a translation and is not seated. The Catoptrica in vol. VII is of doubtful authorship and is seated as Heiberg prints it. The Elements text is 13 books, one line per paragraph of the TEI (definitions, enunciations, proofs), 1.48 million characters.
- Why seated: The model of the deductive treatise: definitions, postulates and common notions, and everything after them derived. The archive's own instruments (the operator, the falsification condition, the seat that verifies against its manifest) are written in its debt, and the shelf had no Euclid.

Seat 02/20 — 1 Enoch: the Ge'ez text layer supplied
The seat of 25 August (Charles 1906, Dillmann 1851, as scans) queued its Unicode text layer. It is seated now from Beta maṣāḥǝft LIT1340EnochE: two edition divisions, 'ed1' and 'EOTCed' ('Text of the EOTC printed Bible').
- Text: text/1-enoch-geez.txt, 1,502 lines, from the TEI as fetched (commit 3550dc59)
- Licence: CC BY-SA 4.0, as the TEI file's <licence> states; redistributed under the same licence, attributed to Beta maṣāḥǝft
- Verified locus: 1 Enoch 1:1 — 'ቃለ ፡ በረከት ፡ ዘሄኖክ ፡ ዘከመ ፡ ባረከ ፡ ኅሩያነ ፡ ወጻድቃነ'
- The seat's record (source.json) is revised in place: status, scope and the text layer; its manifest re-hashed. Card number unchanged (02/20).
Not seated, and why
- 2 Enoch: it survives only in Slavonic. The open editions found are translations (Morfill and Charles, 1896); Sokolov's Slavonic text (Moscow, 1910) was not found in an open scan. QUEUED.
- Bezold's critical Kebra Nagast (1905): public domain, not found in an open scan in this pass. QUEUED.
- The Ethiopian Book of the Covenant, Didascalia and Clement of the broader canon: Beta maṣāḥǝft carries no edition text for them. QUEUED.
- Seventeen Beta maṣāḥǝft entries tagged Bible whose edition division holds under 200 Ethiopic characters (introductions, single prayers, catalogue stubs): named in 20/01's scope.
- Modern critical editions (Göttingen, de Jonge, Picard, Burchard; VanderKam's Jubilees as a book) are in copyright and are not seated; where Beta maṣāḥǝft's text rests on one, its own statement of the basis is recorded with the work.
- Euclid in translation (Heath, 1908), and the Elements volumes of the Opera omnia, which the Perseus TEI already gives.
- Everything marked QUEUED in a seat's scope.
How the seats were made
Sources located in Beta maṣāḥǝft's Works repository (cloned at commit 3550dc59 of 23 October 2026; every file measured for the Ethiopic characters in its edition division), on the Internet Archive (advanced search; item metadata read for access restriction, volume and files) and in the Perseus Digital Library (PerseusDL/canonical-greekLit at commit 0189b9c8). Each item's front matter read against the edition claimed for it. Every Internet Archive file checked against the md5 the Archive publishes for it; none differed. TEI reduced to plain text by code with chapter and verse kept; OCR layers seated as fetched, uncorrected, the scan as witness. Every file hashed into its seat's MANIFEST.sha256; every verified locus is a string found in the seated text by the builder, rebuild/corpora/ea-corpora-20/seat.py, from the specifications beside it. 121 works and 473,084 lines in four new seats, and 1,502 lines added to a fifth.
