Description
Summary:A note by Marvin L. Colker published in this journal concerns a bishop named Angerius Brito, whom the author assigns to the see of Caithness in Scotland. The note gives the text of an epitaph composed in the bishop's honor, from a manuscript in the library of Trinity College Dublin. ‘Who was Angerius?’ asks Mr. Colker, and he continues Nothing is known about him apart from the above verses. His very name is unrecorded elsewhere. There is no trace of him in the source books for the history of Scotland, in the ecclesiastical histories of Scotland, in the histories of Caithness or in the lists of bishops for all medieval Christendom.
