Notes

  • [a] The family only appears in Rosselli's sepoltuario once in reference to a tomb co-owned with the Lastricati. Rosselli's description, which he annotated in a manner that has confused some copyists and readers, has led some to misidentify the arms of the Lastricati, which carried a split silver-and-blue shield with a red rampant dog as those of the della Burella. Riccardo Cappelli (Appendice: L'arme dei Lastricati) has persuasively that the arms with twelve alternating pieces (burellato) traversed by a red pole, belonged to the della Burella, a play on their surname.
