The achievement of the objectives outlined for this exploratory project will only be possible through the scientific skills of each member of the team. In fact, the almost total lack of historiography on the subject, and the methodologies and analytical perspectives that this project intends to explore, have made it necessary to assemble a multidisciplinary team with a wide range of skills in history, diplomacy, palaeography, codicology, literature and computer science. In addition, three consultants joined the team.
