Comments:
[103] This rental, which must have been inspired by the same resolution of a dispute with the Hospitallers that generated the rental of 1157-1163, may have dated from slightly later than the Hospitaller one. It cannot have been compiled any earlier than 1160. Of the tenants listed in it, in Dec. 25 1151 – Aug. 31 1152 Martinus Caroana, with his son’s Bonetus’s consent, had confirmed the gift of houses to the Holy Sepulchre made by his first wife Teiza while she was alive, but on Jun. 8 1160 Bonetus, who had been disputing this with respect to a volta attached to the houses, came to an agreement with the canons that specified that should there be further infractions, the volta could go to canons. The rental must have been drawn up after the agreement with Bonetus. The rent for the vault is not mentioned in the rental and it is possible that it had passed to the Holy Sepulchre. Further evidence is provided by the name of Dame Gode, who was the widow of the viscount Bencelinus. He is mentioned in documents 1134-52, but must have died in the 1150s. [Tischler, Die Burgenses, pp. 93-6, 259]. Of other identifiable names in the list, Albertus Lombardus, whose houses are to be found referred in one of the interpolations, flourished from 1150 to 1174 (Tischler, Die Burgenses, pp. 128-31, 252). Strictly speaking, therefore, the rental should be dated between 1160 and c.1175, but it is likely to have been compiled in the mid 1160s.
