[PAPAUTY]. [CELESTIN III] Confirmation of the privileges granted by Pope Alexander III to the monastery of San Pietro in Bovara, a Benedictine foundation, on which a number of churches depend, including: San Donato de Buiano, San Angelo de Fabri, San Philippo de Pelano etc. Italy, Rome, dated 1193 [3rd year of Celestin III's pontificate]. Remnants of silk lakes attached to fold (lead seal missing), chancery script, numerous subscribing cardinals with their "signum", decorated initial C at head of initial protocol. Old analyses on reverse. Dimensions: 745 x 580 mm Charter folded, several holes at folds and stains. Celestine III (pope 1191-1198) was a member of the Orsini family. The bottom of the parchment is typical of 13th-century papal bulls: on the left, the "rota" (large wheel with double circumference and four spokes) with the pope's personal motto written between the two circles. In the center, the papal subscription, with the words SS (subscripsi) also in his hand, and on the right the monogram "benevalete", of the same dimensions as the rota, which sums up the final wish. Below, in three columns, are the names of the cardinals present at the drafting, listed in order of seniority, each authenticated by his SS mark, with cardinal bishops in the middle, cardinal priests on the left and cardinal deacons on the right. At the very bottom, just before the folding, is the date in the editor's handwriting: "Datum Lateranis per manum Egidii sancti Nicolai in carcere...".
