Abstract: The aim of the contribution is to present the factual data about the main collections of scholia to the Greek mathematical treatises (Elements, Almagest, the so-called “little astronomy”), along with an analysis of their types, function, and organization within the textual space of the ancient codex. On the basis of these factual data, an assessment is provided of the extent to which these collections may provide a clear-cut answer to the long-standing problem of the origins of the running commentaries that some medieval manuscripts present as sets of scholia.
