Chronicon complutense


The Chronicon complutense sive alcobacense is a short medieval Latin history, in the form of annals, of events in Galicia and Portugal up to the death of Ferdinand I "the Great", whom the anonymous chronicler lauds as an "exceedingly strong emperor", in 1065. It is the earliest "chronicon" dealing with Galaico-Portuguese events. The first edition was published by Enrique Flórez in 1767. A more recent edition, incorporating the recension known as the Chronicon conimbrigense, was published under the title Annales Portugalenses veteres by Pierre David.
