Also, if I remember correctly, we noticed a focus on the south of Italy in certain sections, so I wouldn't be surprised if this MS is from Naples. Or Milan, or Venice, or even Germany. But it's hard to put this on the map.

Yes, that makes sense.  Shoot -- it's in the right time period but we just don't know.  I wanted to review this more carefully (fully understand the pros and cons for the various possible locations) and will do so.  If any academic has picked this up beyond what has been noted in the string, or if I have anything to add to the conversation, I'll definitely report back -- likely "necroing" the string about the manuscript itself.

Thanks for considering it as an addition to the map but I see the problem.
