The Collectio Wigorniensis altera is the oldest survivor from the so-called primitive decretal collections from the twelfth century. It is extant in only one copy (London, British Library, Royal 11.B.II, fol. 97r-102) and is composed of twelve items from ten decretals of Alexander III alongside an additional amalgamated canon comprised of excerpts from multiple sources. With one exception, the recipients of Alexander's letters were English; most went to Roger, bishop of Worcester from 1164-1179. Although not all the letters are precisely datable, it is generally assumed that the collection was compiled in his immediate environment in the mid-1170s (Duggan: 1173-74? Landau: "um 1173", Pennington: "c. 1175").
