Does anyone have any suggestions for sources, in any format, regarding the medieval university position of clavigerius/clavigerii? What I know is that this office of "keyholder" was held simultaneously by (usually) three persons, each of whom had a different key to the chest of the university, which could only be opened when all clavigerii were present. I have checked through the indexes and sampled the text of what I believe to be standard sources (e.g. Rashdall) without success, but I may have missed something, and our holdings in this area are somewhat limited. Sources checked with minor success: Dictionary of the Middle Ages The Medieval University: 1200-1400 by Lowrie Daly Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
