Fol. A: 382 x 226 mm, 1 col. /15 wl, 303 x 160 mm. Fol. B: 379 x 234 mm, 1 col. /15 wl, c. 305 x 158 mm.

Remarks
This fragment covered a book with documents from the monastery of Sanfins de Friestas (Valença), near the northern Portuguese border. The monastery and its properties were given to the Jesuits by the King in 1545, who took possession (after some reconstruction work) in 1554; this was intended as a means to support expenses related to the Colégio de Jesus, founded in Coimbra in 1542. With the extinction of the Order, the College's administrative documents (including those concerning Sanfins de Friestas) entered the University archives. From the same book another fragment survives, P-Cua IV-3ª Gav. 44 (03). Both fragments show close proximity with the antiphoner E-Tc 44.2; a few chants are found, however, among early notated sources, only in E-Tc 44.1; the breviaries of Braga and Évora are also closely related.
