This is one that may interest Sharon and the team at 1169. Though it is too late to anything about it now, it seems the orginal papal document the Laudibiliter, which Henry II interpreted to mean he was granted Lordship over Ireland by the only ‘multi-national’ in existence back then, was frauded up by dropping three crucial paragraphs. More of an historical curio than anything else. Photos from the programme here.

We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!
For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.
Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.
