Ms. Codex 394 - Spechio di direcione delli pesi, valute, prezii, e pagamente dell'armate da mar, e terre, del serenissimo dominio Veneto, et altre particularitàLet’s read a different kind of manuscript this time: it features tables and lists concerning the expenses of the Venetian army and navy (including wages) and other topics, with information dated from 1667-1711 CE. Those kind of documents, although not beautiful to see in themselves, are extremely useful in giving us a sense of how life was in the city of Venice in the 17th and 18th centuries.If you are curious about these texts, click here (or for the facsimile, here). -- source link
