=== Hypatian Codex ===
The [[Hypatian Codex]] dates to the 15th century. It incorporates much information from the lost 12th-century ''[[Kievan Chronicle]]'' and 13th-century ''[[Galician–Volhynian Chronicle]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.encyclopediaofukraine.com/display.asp?linkpath=pages%5CC%5CH%5CChronicles.htm|title=Chronicles|website=www.encyclopediaofukraine.com}}</ref>  The language of this work is the East Slavic version of [[Church Slavonic language]] with many additional irregular east-slavisms (like other east-Slavic codices of the time). Whereas the Laurentian (Muscovite) text traces the Kievan legacy through to the Muscovite princes, the Hypatian text traces the Kievan legacy through the rulers of the [[Halych]] principality. The Hypatian codex was rediscovered in Kiev in the 1620s, and a copy was made for Prince Kostiantyn Ostrozhsky<!--No-one after 1608 in Russian Wiki-->. A copy was found in Russia in the 18th century at the [[Ipatiev Monastery]] of [[Kostroma]] by the Russian historian Nikolai Karamzin.{{cn|date=September 2022}}

Numerous monographs and published versions of the chronicle have been made, the earliest known being in 1767. [[Aleksey Shakhmatov]] published a pioneering [[Text linguistics|textological]] analysis of the narrative in 1908. [[Dmitry Likhachev]] and other Soviet scholars partly revisited his findings. Their versions attempted to reconstruct the pre-Nestorian chronicle, compiled at the court of [[Yaroslav the Wise]] in the mid-11th century.{{cn|date=September 2022}}
