The Pactual Tradition in Hispanic Monasticism - The Library of ...

Galicia, I, 52, 56.
117. The charter, preserved in copies of the early 11th (AHN, Clero, San Julián de Samos, carpeta
1.239, no. 3) and 18th centuries (BN, Madrid, MSS, Cód. 18.387, fols. 260 v -261 r ), was first published
by M. Rubén García Alvarez, "Más documentos gallegos," 20-36 (no. 5); cf. also 14-15. L. Sánchez
Belda, Documentos reales de la Edad Media referentes a Galicia (Madrid, 1953), 40 (no. 36), dates
this privilegio "[910-924]" and ascribes it to the monastery of San Martín and Santa Marina de
Barbadelo.
118. Text from AHN, Clero, Cód. 992, Privilegios de Astorga , copied by Carlos Portero (1753), fols.
268 v -273 r , from the Tumbo Negro de Astorga, doc. no. 388; also Cód. 970, Privilegios de Astorga,
copied by Jerónimo de Chirivoga (1735), fols. 74 r -75 v . The date in Portero of Era DCCCCI (863) is
obviously in error; Chirivoga reads Era DCCCCL (912); but Flórez, who also used the original Tumbo
(E. S., XVI, 64), gives the year as 916.
119. Text of real privilegio of Ordoño II in Yepes, Coronica, V, 450 r-v . See also E. S., XVII, 16-20;
Emilio Sáez, "Los ascendientes de San Rosendo," Hispania, VIII (1948), 31, note 58. Sá Bravo,
Monacato de Galicia, II, 57-67.
120. Text in E. S., XIV, 367-73 (Apénd. III); cf. Plácido Arias, Historia del real monasterio de Samos
(Santiago de Compostela, 1950), 51-5. Ofilón, abbot from 856 to 872, according to Arias, op. cit., 39-
42, was a refugee monk from Córdoba; the period between his death and the accession of Sabaricus
(900-907) is particularly obscure. The whole question of pactualism at San Julián de Samos, a house
perhaps twice colonized by monks of the Mozarabic observance from Spania, calls for more thorough
investigation. Particular attention needs to be paid not only to the early Samonensian diplomas (the
authenticity of which Sánchez Albornoz defends against Barrau-Dihigo's scepticism; see Cl. Sánchez
Albornoz, "Documentos de Samos de los reyes de Asturias," Cuad hist. Esp., IV, 1946, 147-60;
reprinted in his Miscelánea de estudios históricos, León, 1970, 255-70), but also to the complementary
documentation of San Julian's dependencies and of the many neighboring monasteries in the Gallegan
comarca so strongly affected by the pactual tradition.
121. Text from Tumbo de Celanova, fols. 62 r , col. 1-62 V , col. 2, in E. S., XVIII, 326-9; E. Sáez, 'Notas
y documentos sobre Sancho Ordoñez rey de Galicia," Cuad. hist. Esp., XI (1949), 82-6 (doc. no. 4); cf.
Flórez, E. S. , vol. cit., 96-7; Sánchez Belda, Docs, reales referentes a Galicia, 51 (no. 38).
122. Tumbo Nuevo de Lugo (AHN, fols. 43r-44v). The reference to King Alfonso as son of Ramiro (!)
apparently means that the copyist's ligature in the date is intended for an x aspada, i.e., DCCCCXLI
(903), which places this pergamino under Alfonso III. Alternatively, if read as DCCCLXVI (928), the
ruler would be Alfonso IV.

5.
124. Tumbo de Celanova, fols. 153 r , cols. 1-2. On San Rosendo and the early history of this famous
abbey, see above all, while awaiting publication of his San Rosendo y los orígenes del monasterio de
Celanova, the studies by Emilio Sáez: "El monasterio de Santa María de Ribeira," Hispania, IV (1944),
3-27, 163-210; "Notas al episcopologio minduniense del siglo X," ibid., VI (1946), 3-79 (especially 6-
9); "Los ascendientes de San Rosendo," ibid., VIII (1948), 3-76, 179-233 (also separately). Cf. for the
older bibliography, F. Pérez, "Celanova," Dict. hist. géog. ecclés., XII (Paris, 1953), cols. 48-50; Sá
Bravo, Monacato en Galicia, II, 123-39.
