Vaticanus

According to Hort Sinaiticus and Vaticanus were derived from a common original much older source, "the date of which cannot be later than the early part of the second century, and may well be yet earlier".

Another one, named Meta Romuli, standing in the Ager Vaticanus (today's Borgo ), was destroyed at the end of the 15th century.

Codex Vaticanus is now with the Vatican and Codex Alexandrinus currently owned by the British Library.

For example, it is speculated that this may have provided motivation for canon lists, and that Codex Vaticanus and Codex Sinaiticus may be examples of these Bibles.

It relies mainly on Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and Alexandrinus, and presents a critical apparatus with variants from these and several other sources.

The hill has been called the Vatican Hill (in Latin, Mons Vaticanus) since long before Christianity existed.

The text is closer to Codex Vaticanus than the Complutensian.

They argue that most modern English translations are based on a corrupted New Testament text that relies primarily on the Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus manuscripts.
