text: †(1101). Antioch. Tancred [Marchisius] gives the church of St Laurence of the Genoese one third of the revenues from goods leaving Solinum by land or sea; a street [ruga] in Antioch which runs from the river bed [torrens] as far as the street [ruga] of the Amalfitans, together with the church of St John, which Bohemond [of Taranto], had already donated, reserving the diocesan rights of the cathedral of St Peter of Antioch; one third of the [revenues] of the port of Latakia, as at Solinum, and similarly a ruga with church, as at Antioch, together with [similar rights in] all ports that the Genoese help to conquer in future. The Genoese, together with merchants from Savona and Noli, will pay no commertium. Tancred promises to deal with any complaints they raise within 30 days. Vuilielmus Carpenter, Ricardus constabilis, Vuilielmus Acatapan, Roglerius de Florenza and Vuilielmus Malconvent accompany Tancred in swearing to abide by the terms of this charter. Signatories: Tancredus; Amicus de Foro. Witnesses: Vuilielmus Carpenter; Ricardus constabilis; Vulielmus Acatapan; Vuilielmus Malconvenent; Oliverus [de Alvei]. (Imperiale di Sant’Angelo, Codice diplomatico della repubblica di Genova 1:16, no. 12. See Mayer, Varia Antiochena, pp. 77, 213. Another version is to be found in Ughelli, Italia sacra 4:847-8, in which there appear further witnesses: Tancredus; Anna, notarius de foro patriarchae. Details on the street in Latakia are added, together with privileges in ports the Genoese help conquer and in Gibeletum a fundum in the port and a village [villa] outside. These appear to stem from a purported confirmation by Prince Roger [of Salerno] in the patriarchal palace [Autumn 1112 – June 1119] with the following witnesses: Radulphus dux; Adam conestalle; Toroldus vicecomes; Robertus filius Rostachin; Pontius de Roca Maura; Guaifredus filius Ruinfredi; Amefridus Amiral.

institution: Holy Sepulchre
text: Jun./Jul. 1109 – Nov. 30 1110. Bertrand, inclitus comes [Tripolitanus], son of Raymond of St Gilles, had made an eleemosynary grant, to benefit the soul of his relation William Jordan [count of Cerdagne], in the presence of King Baldwin I of Jerusalem, the archiepiscopus Albariensis and Arnulfus archidiaconus and other good men. He had made this to the church of the Holy Sepulchre which is situated in the castle [castrum] of Mont Pèlerin and was represented by Johannes, who was prior of the same church. Bertrand had given 3 casalia: Abdin/Addin, Babela/Habela, and Beniharan/Beniaran, but he had unjustly taken the casalia back into his hands. When Arnaldus, elected prior of the church on Mont Pèlerin by the chapter of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, demanded the return of the casalia, Bertrand, together with his son Pontius acknowledged his guilt. By an eleemosynary grant he returns them to the church. He confirms the gifts made to the church of the Holy Sepulchre on Mont Pèlerin by his father, Count Raymond of St Gilles, and his cousin William Jordan and in addition gives Arnaldus prior a good horse and the best mule that can be found. If Bertrand or Pontius fail in this commitment they will be subjected to excommunication by the patriarch of Jerusalem, the bishop of Tripoli, the archbishop of Apamea [Femia] and the bishop of Béziers.

The right to ordain the abbots and monks and consecrate the greater church on Mt Tabor will belong for ever to the patriarch of Jerusalem. Other episcopal rights – such as the consecration of chrism and oil and the making of parochial appointments [parrochyalem vicarium] – pertain to the bishop of Nazareth. A third part of all tithes of the region of Tiberias – as much from the knights [de militia] as from land and fodder – will, with the agreement of the bishop and his clergy, be enjoyed by the church of Mt Tabor in perpetuity in order to feed the monks. If the monks should acquire the lands held at present by pilgrim knights [peregrini milites], two-thirds of the tithes are to go to the bishop, a third to the monks.
