The Italian ("um 1217", Bologna or Padua according to the catalogue) manuscript contains the first four of the Compilationes, including the Breviarium on fols 1ra-77va; there is then just over a folio's worth of additions, from fol. 77va-78va. Gérard Fransen, in his work on the Breviarium, placed the Bamberg manuscript in his third, 'classical' or Λ group, as he saw it the most complete - and latest - of the three groups. It is the base manuscript for the analysis in the Clavis database.
