Abstract

This paper deals with the collection of twelve Byzantine riddles contained in Pal. gr. 356 (f. 168), a manuscript written between the thirteenth and the fourteenth century. All the riddles have been translated and endowed with a full commentary, with particular regard to the similar riddles present in other manuscripts; when possible (in most cases), a solution has been provided.
