Chronica sancti Pantaleonis

The Chronica sancti Pantaleonis, also called the Annales sancti Panthaleonis Coloniensis maximi, is a medieval Latin universal history written at the Benedictine monastery of Saint Pantaleon in Cologne.

It was written in 1237 and covers the history of the world in a series of annals from Creation down to the year of composition.

The Chronica emphasises the four "great kingdoms" of Daniel (the regna maxima).

For ancient history, it relies on Flavius Josephus, Paulus Orosius, Justinus, the Venerable Bede, Regino of Prüm and Petrus Comestor.

The manuscripts from Brussels and Wolfenbüttel are richly illustrated with images of rulers and genealogical trees.
