Abstract
Through the analysis of his manuscript collection of inscriptions (BNE, ms. 5781, ff. 72r-82v; 84r), the handwritten sources used by Antonio Agustín (1517-1585) are identified, which the archbishop almost never cites and even undervalues. They are Lluís Pons d'Icart's Epigrammata antiquae urbis Tarraconensis; the Suma de las inscripciones romanas y memorias de la Bética and the Descripción de la provincia Bethica by Juan Fernández Franco; Joan Armengol's sylloge; the so-called Liber Parmensis, and the anonymous ms. 5973 of the BNE. The study also provides information about the modus operandi and the epigraphic interests of the archbishop; it is completed with a table of correspondences between the manuscripts.
