A hitherto unknown fragment of Basil of Caesarea’s De Spiritu sancto (CPG 2939) forms part of the small collection of Greek manuscripts at the University of Notre Dame (Indiana, USA). The fragment (Notre Dame, Univ. of Notre Dame, Hesburgh Library, Frag. I. 63) dates to the second half of the ninth century and is an entirely new witness to the text. This article provides an analytical description, transcription , and analysis of the fragment, which is the earliest extant manuscript of Basil’s De Spiritu sancto.
