The oldest known manuscript of the Key of Solomon, 1446
BnF Ital. 1524
Compilazioni di vari trattati latini d’astrologia, necromanzia, magia, medicina, ecc. is a collection of magical texts in Italian preserved at the Bibliothèque nationale de France. Folios 178v-235r contain Clavicula di Salomone dated 1446 which is apparently the oldest known manuscript of the Key of Solomon. It was probably translated from a “copy of the Latin text that was in the library of the Duke Filippo Maria in Pavia in 1426.” (Jean-Patrice Boudet, “Magic at Court” in Sophie Page, Catherine Rider, et al., The Routledge History of Medieval Magic, London: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, p. 339.)
