All auctions / Medals, Arms & Armor / 1511 - Antiguo pergamino en Latín escritura dotal corona de Aragón - 1511
Original notarial document dated in the year 1511, written entirely in Latin and belonging to the territorial and legal sphere of the old Crown of Aragon. It is a "Constitución Dotal" (dowry contract), a legal instrument of great importance in the era to set the economic foundations of the marriage and to protect the patrimony contributed by the parties. On the exterior cover (plica), drafted as an index for its historical archive, one can read clearly: "Constitucio Dotal vide Cap.ts Matrim. Nº 4. Garballer vide Fluvia". This annotation directly identifies the lineages involved in the contract, formally linking the Garballer and Fluvia families. From palaeographic and linguistic points of view, the manuscript stands out for its use of rigorous legal Latin and a careful Gothic cursive notarial script, characteristic of the early years of the sixteenth century. The state of conservation is excellent: the medium maintains its structural firmness and the ink retains a high contrast that allows full reading of the document without loss of text, showing only the natural folds resulting from its secular storage.
