Note 161 — Chapter X
Reading edition
The tract by Ivano (? Hyvanus), printed in vol. XXXIII. of Muratori, is diffuse and unsatisfactory, although he was an official of Volterra. I prefer the contemporary narratives of Porcellio and Vespasiano, Vat. Urb. MSS. Nos. 373 and 941. I have also consulted the epics of Sanzi and Naldo, Rinuccini's Ricordi, and a number of unimportant narratives and documents in the public library of Volterra, as well as the standard Italian histories.
