The aim of the text is to identify and analyse, from a formal and functional point of view, a corpus of closely related documents – in addition to wills and codicils, the dossier also includes execution deeds, including above all post-mortem inventories and auctions of the deceased’s property – concerning the formulation and execution of ultimae voluntates by notaries working mainly in central-northern Italy in the period between the 12th and 15th centuries.
