- Summary
- CCCC MS 493 is a printed book containing a 1516 edition of the Tractatus de sphaera by Iohannes de Sacro Bosco (fl. early thirteenth century) to which has been added an early sixteenth-century manuscript tract on astronomy described as Regule astronomie ex Arnoldo extracte. Probably, though not certainly, put together by Parker, nothing else has so far been established about these seven hand-written sheets of paper.
