Bari in Apulia. II is said that more than
1000 Byzantine diplomas upon a blue parch-
ment have been discovered in the Cathedral,
where they were walled up in a niche, appar-
emily for their safe preser walton. Whether
the blue color of the parchment was its orgi-

The documents belong to the Chapter OF Bari
