Latin Private Deeds in Norman South Italy (12th Century). The Example of Castrum Tocci

Summary/Abstract: This paper represents a brief overview of surviving private deeds produced during the twelfth century by several notaries in the area north of the city of Benevento, in Langobardia minor, and more precisely in the ancient Castrum Tocci. These documents shed light on important problems regarding all the documentary evidence for southern Italy in the above-mentioned century – an interesting period of transition and change marked by clear developments in scripts and documents, although they inevitably underwent temporary phases of involution and discontinuity.
