The Austrian and Salzburg annals

A family of monastic annals from Austria, Styria and Salzburg, printed together. For 1199 to 1200 they note Duke Leopold VI holding both Austria and Styria since 1198, the death of Archbishop Adalbert of Salzburg in April 1200 and the election of Eberhard II, Bishop Wolfger of Passau's adherence to Philip, King Ottokar of Bohemia, and the war between King Emeric and Duke Andrew in Hungary. Entries are short and dated, and the different houses sometimes disagree on a year.
