June 3. Viterbo. The Genoese ambassadors at the papal court report to the podestà, the captain of the people and the anciani on the progress of peace negotiations with Venice and Pisa. They report inter alia (p. 114) that letters from their consul overseas reached them at Viterbo saying that the ‘barones ultramarini’ who had sworn to side with the Genoese had broken faith and attached themselves to the queen of Cyprus (Plaisance) and the prince of Antioch (Bohemond VI) and their other opponents. That affects their legation as they had instructions that any peace, truce or composition would need the consent of these barons.
