The manuscript is in good overall condition; there is some fraying along the edges and the covers have been worn, but apart from that no great damage has been done.
One unruled column with a varying number of lines.
One hand writing a cursive of
saec. XVI
. Headlines entered and some corrections made by a contemporary hand (possibly the main hand) in red ink that has faded in several places.
Majuscules for the beginnings of charters have been highlighted in red ink; headlines in red ink. Persons and places named in the charters have been underlined with black ink.
A limp binding reusing a leaf from a canon law manuscript of
saec. XIII or XIV
.
c
. 27 × 42,5* (20,5 (9,5 + 1,5 + 9,5) × 35*).
The manuscript consists of a single quire containing charters (dated between 1365 and 1476) concerning the goods of St Sigfried’s altar in the cathedral of
Turku
. The originals of the charters were kept in the cathedral and many – although not all of them – also appear in the cathedral’s copybook (
REA
). The writing of this manuscript seems to have taken place during
saec. XVI
; possibly it was done in connection with the confiscations of the charters during the Reformation.
In
1763
the manuscript was in the possession of the Swedish historian and collector,
Anders Anton von Stiernman
(1695–1765) who mentions it in a letter to
K. F. Mennander
(1712–1786), bishop of Turku (see
Österbladh 1942, 661
). After Stiernman’s death, his collections were passed to
Olaus d.y. Celsius
(1716–1794) through marriage in
1766
. The manuscripts from the collection were moved to
Uppsala University Library
in
1795
.
First leaf: Shelf-mark of Uppsala University Library, ‘E 214’, and a previous shelf-mark ‘Celsiska Saml. 2. 80’; ‘n: 80’ also on the verso side.
