text: Mar. 8/27 1170 - Mar. 7/26 1171. [125] Bohemond III, the son of Prince Raymond, Dei gratia princeps Antiochenus, with the agreement of his wife domina Orgollosa principissa, confirms under seal for the church of St Mary, the archbishop, consuls, senators and members of the commune of Pisa and its province residing in his principality land to build a house in the port of Latakia. This land extends below the church of St Elyas, before the house of the Templars [domus Templi] and the house of magister Ugo, as far as the sea, and along the seashore as far as a tannery [taneria] and the old wall, and in the upper part as far as the ditch. If the Pisans by the judgement of court [iudicium curie] can recover the land in the port occupied by Hugo Embriacus, the son of Willelmus, the land now given will revert to the prince. Bohemond gives in addition a house in the city of Antioch that belonged to dominus Odo de Tyro. He assures the Pisans of the security of their persons and goods in case of shipwreck and of the property of those who should die, except when they are intestate. He remits half of all taxes [medietas totius iuris] customarily paid on entry and departure, coming and returning, buying and selling, throughout his territory and he assures them of his protection. Disputes between them can be settled in their own court [curia], but if a case cannot be decided, or involves theft, predation, homicide or the subjects of Antioch, it will decided in the prince’s court. Witnesses: Guiscardus de Insula vicecomestabulus; Rogerius de Surdavalle; Willelmus de Lobjs; Guafridus de Dor-dan; Iohannes de Salgin; Guiscardus de Nazareht; Henricus de Loges. The charter was drawn up by Bernardus cancellarius.
