Alanus is a printed name in the main treatise's catalogue of reputed possessors of the art. The list gives the name without a work-title, biography, or identifying epithet. Its function is to enlarge the genealogy of authoritative witnesses, not to establish which historical Alanus is meant or independently verify possession of a tincture. The English preserves the name unchanged.
