Our texts of the two complete extant works of Gorgias ( Helen and Palamedes ) and of the two attributed, rightly or wrongly, to Alkidamas ( Odysseus and On Sophists ) are derived entirely from two manuscripts. The one generally known as A is the Cripps manuscript (Burney 95), now in the British Museum, which is a principal authority also for Antiphon, Andokides, Isaios, Lykourgos, and Deinarchos; it contains Helen, Palamedes , and Odysseus , but not On Sophists . The other, known as X, is the Palatine manuscript (Heidelberg 88), which is the principal manuscript of Lysias; it contains Helen Odysseus , and On Sophists , but not Palamedes
