A Latin collection of rare sources on Neapolitan history, edited by Ambrogio Leone, Gabriele Barrio, Francesco Grani and Giovanni da Nola and published in 1738, aimed at scholars of the ancient and medieval history of Naples and its peoples. Its pictures are small letterpress woodcut ornaments: a repeated flower-and-scroll cartouche framing a bird, and a boxed emblem of a double-headed eagle with wings beside columns of italic type, offering a designer compact baroque ornament and heraldic motifs for borders and vignettes.
