Provenance
In 1590 – Ambrosius Mantz, Ehingen – His handwritten ownership entry on the titles. Among other things, also the deletion of the entry 'Marcus Mantz,' evidently his father. Mantz came from Ehingen and was a teacher, pastor, and book author. He studied, among other places, in Ingolstadt. Between 1595 and 1597, he is found as a pastor at the St. Martin city parish church in Illertissen.
Around 1850 - Convicts Library Tübingen - Their stamp on the title pages
From 1960 - Library of Hans Fürstenberg (1890–1982) - His ex libris 'Ex Musaeo Hans Fürstenberg', on the inner cover of Volume I.
