Chronicon Ambrosianum
The Chronicon Ambrosianum or Chronica parva Ambrosianum is a set of exceedingly terse Latin annals that, together with the Annales Compostellani and the Chronicon Burgense, forms a group of related histories first called the Efemérides riojanas by Manuel Gómez-Moreno because they may have been compiled in La Rioja. The Chronicon is named after the Biblioteca Ambrosiana in Milan, where the Chronicon was first discovered in manuscript and published by Ludovico Antonio Muratori.
The Chronicon contains a list of ten feast days with the names of their saints and seventeen years, each described by one event. The first event, in Era 38, is the nativity of Jesus. Besides deaths, the only events mentioned are the Massacre of the Innocents, the passion of Jesus, the assumption of John the Evangelist, and the prophesying of Mohammed. The final year, though it is placed out of chronological order, is the death of Thomas Becket. The last event in the list is the death of Juan de Ortega.Editions
