Provenance
Marginal notes throughout, mostly not by the main scribe.
A label inscribed 'Iohannis Philippus de Lignamine Messanensis, Syxto IIII Summo Pontifici etc.' (fols. ii verso); but this MS. does not have the continuation of the chronicle by de Lignamine (pr. Muratori, col. 263–75); the source of the information on the label was probably the edition pr. by de Lignamine (Rome, 1474), where the chronicle and continuation appear as one work.
Giuseppe Valletta (1636–1714), of Naples (on whom see Hassall, 1970, 22, 22 n. 9).
Thomas Coke; bookplate of 'THOMAS WILLIAM COKE', formerly Norfolk, Holkham Hall, MS. 191.
