This essay publishes the inventory of the movable property – precious fabrics, jewellery, stock goods etc. – found in Marco Polo’s house at the time of his death (8 or 9 January 1324) and bequeathed to his three daughters, Fantina, Bellela and Moreta. The inventory was drawn up in the vernacular by the husband of the eldest daughter Fantina, Marco Bragadin, who later misappropriated the third part due to his wife. Therefore, after her husband’s death, Fantina sued Marco’s executors, the powerful Procurators of St. Mark’s, and won the case, forcing them to settle her third of the inheritance. This results from a decision issued on 13 July 1366, in which the notary-registrar produced an extremely faithful transcription of the inventory drawn up by Bragadin in 1324.
