Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this publication is to critically evaluate the source edition of the cartulary with a reference number OF 80a from the archives of the Geheimes Staats- archiv Preussischer Kulturbesitz in Berlin. The source text in question was created in the 15th century in the chancellery of the Cathedral Chapter of Frombork, most prob- ably in connection with disputes over the borders and the territory of the dominion of Warmia. The small-sized cartulary is limited to only 12 source texts. A significant part of the documents published in the edition was already known to researchers from the materials printed in the Diplomatic Codex of Warmia, as well as from a copy of one of the books of privileges kept in the Archives of the Archdiocese of Warmia in Olsz- tyn. This, however, does not change the fact that the intention to make the entirety of the cartulary available to a wider audience was certainly a good idea. Alicja Dobrosiel- ska, who undertook this task, made a number of mistakes in the explanatory footnotes while preparing the source text for printing. Therefore, the essential part of this article is to point out the erroneous and inaccurate information, mainly concerning the Can- ons of the Cathedral Chapter of Warmia, and to present correct data which should have been included in the discussed edition.
