The inheritance of Danolo
Witness statements in the inheritance of Danolo, in Latin, manuscript on paper [Italy, Perugia, first half 15th century].
Perugian 15th-century witness statements regarding the inheritance of Danolo and his wife Vanna.

302 x 226mm. 11 leaves, apparently complete, script in a very neat and clear notarial hand, written space: 202 x 115mm., the watermark with a triple mount within a circle extending into a cross (Piccard 16, Abtlg. 4, Nr. 1358, used in Perugia from c.1396) (some foxing and staining, especially to final leaves, f.2 loose).

Provenance:
(1) Colker MS 179; acquired in 1971 from Renzo Rizzi.

The manuscript is a record of witness statements regarding the inheritance of a certain Danolo and his wife Vanna. Eight witness statements are recorded, and each witness is interrogated on a number of articles (apparently 8 in total, although not all witnesses are interrogated on every article - for example the first witness, Andreas Nicolai of Perugia has responses for 7 articles, but on the rest he has nothing more to say: ‘dixit se nihil aliud scire’). The interrogations follow the same pattern, and all end with the phrase ‘Item interrogatus [...] recte respondit’: the first article is about the land that Danolus left in his will; the second is confirmation that Danolo and Vanna were witnessed ‘tenere, tractare et reputare’ to have Andrea Angelo and Tommasa recognised as their children and heirs by all (‘reputati fuerunt ab omnibus’); the third concerns Danolo’s death and burial (Angelus Cagnecti ‘dixit quia praedictum Danolum in articulo nominatum mortuum [...] corpus dicti Danoli ad sepellendum. Interrogatus ubi fuit sepultus, dixit in Ecclesiam Sancti Francisci de Perusio’, presumably the Church of San Francesco al Prato in Perugia). Subsequent articles are about the heirs claiming ownership of their inheritance. The witnesses, all from Perugia, are: Andreas Nicolai, who is asked about 7 articles; Ser Angelus Cagnecti, who is asked about 6 (Angelus Cagnecti is documented in a Perugian notarial act of 1406, see Cfr. ASPg, ASCP, Comunanze, 8, c. 110r); Vicus Bartoli, who is asked about 7; Lippus Macthioli, who is asked about 6; Valarianus Arlectutii, who is asked about 8 articles; Macteus Francisci, who is asked about 8; Rentius Jacobi , who is asked about 8; and Antoninus Cecchi, who is asked about 8.
