Notes

  • [a] The arched coffin is in the compass east wall of the San Benedetto cloister.
  • [b] Stefano Rosselli included a Bindus de Macci on the 8th of January in his copy of the Santa Maria Novella necrology without a year. The earliest possible year of death for Bindo is 1288 given that he was prior through April 14th, 1287.
  • [c] Schiatta appears in the necrology of Santa Maria Novella with death date and parish in S. Bartolo
  • [d] Giovanni was buried wearing the habit of the Dominican Order.
  • [e] The sepoltuari note that the Rosati family took over the Macci tomb in 1564, placing their arms with a rampant lion holding a flowering staff above the arch and an inscription below, though it is unclear where. Neither of these elements is on the present tomb which may have been recut in the nineteenth century with the original, Macci family arms.
