The aim of the article is to rectify numerous mistakes appearing in literature concerning the two oldest manuscripts Plates offounders and benefactors of the Cistercian monastery in Oliwa stored in Sweden. The analysis of the manuscripts has facilitated new hypotheses connected with their creation. It has been established that the paper manuscript kept in Kungliga Biblioteket in Stockholm with the entry number D 1360 was written shortly after the death of King Aleksander Jagiellon in the autumn of 1506 before Sigismund the Old took the throne. The reason for its creation was the willingness to include King Aleksander among the benefactors of the monastery of Oliwa in order to express thanks for the confrmation of all the privileges hitherto granted and the new privileges granted in 1505 by Stefan Falk. The author or inspirer of the manuscript was the abbot of the monastery at that time Grzegorz Stolzenfot. The second code, stored in Stadsbibliotek in Linköping with the entry number H3a, consists of two paper manuscripts combined with each other probably in the 18th century. The first manuscript, written in the second half of the 15th century, includes the texts Plates (k. 1v–5r) and was torn out from a larger manuscript which was a collection of various works. The other manuscript created in the 14th century contains copies of four documents for the Cistercian monastery in Doberan (Pelplin). It has been established that the text of Plates published by Jarosław Wenta in the article of 1998 is in fact a reprint of the 19th century edition of Wojciech Kętrzyński, which only in selected fragments includes the text from the manuscript H3a. As a result of the inquiry it has been established that there was only one (not three) copies of the manuscript of H3a from Linköping – it is the copy “a” by Eric Benzelius of 1710 made in Uppsala (Linköping entry number T67). The remaining two are merely transcripts of the copy by Benzelius: the Greifswald copy and the Gdańsk copy of Strehlke.
