Minima aribertiana

The first part of the paper focuses on the curtis of Casale, hosting a chapel served by a group of canons, that was bequeathed to St. John’s church in Monza by Archbishop Ariberto in his December 1044 will. The curtis can be reasonably located in the territory of Camnago, along the river Seveso, where since the 13th century documents attest the existence of a house of canons near the church of S. Fedele de Incasate, suppressed by Charles Borromeo at the end of the 16th century. In the second part, the paper studies two private deeds drawn up in Cantù in January 1101 acted by Arialdo, son of Lanfranco de loco Entemiano, two persons that are most likely to be added to the small number of Archbishop Ariberto’s relatives known so far.
