CONTENT DESCRIPTION
The Coptic Synaxarion (or Synaxarium) is a compilation of Coptic hagiographies. The second part starts with the month of Baramhat (or Paremhat, 7th month) and ends with the last, 13th month of the year, the month of Nasie (or Nasii, also known as "the little month").

GENERAL COMMENTS
The Coptic title probably has a spelling mistake, where a superfluous "ⲓ" (iota) was added in the word for synaxarion (most common and correct form would be: ⲥⲩⲛⲁⲝⲁⲣⲓⲟⲛ). The Synaxarion is one of the most important books in the Coptic tradition, since it contains memorabilia/remembrances of Coptic saints and martyrs for each day of the Coptic year, as well as different Church-related events, arranged according to their anniversaries.
