Notes

[a] Stefano Rosselli reports that this tomb was one of sixteen that was covered over by the construction of the Salviati chapel, which was founded between 1446 and 1447 ("Le soprascritte Armi e Sepolture da n. 1 a n. 16 sono da gran tempo in quà guasto, e coperte dalla Cappella de Salviati fabbricata dopo, e da altre stanze.")
[b] This tomb is described as at the head of the cemetery, raised off of the ground and supported by two lions.
