BURGUNDIO , sometimes erroneously styled BURGUNDIUS, an See also:Italian jurist of the 12th See also:century. He was a See also:professor at the university of See also:Paris, and assisted at the Lateran See also:Council in 1179, dying at a very advanced See also:age in 1194. He was a distinguished See also:Greek See also:scholar, and is believed on the authority of See also:Odofredus to have translated into Latin, soon after the See also:Pandects were brought to See also:Bologna, the various Greek fragments which occur in them, with the exception of those in the 27th See also:book, the See also:translation of which has been attributed to See also:Modestinus. The Latin See also:translations ascribed to Burgundio were received at Bologna as an integral See also:part of the See also:text of the Pandects, and See also:form part of that known as The See also:Vulgate in distinction from the Florentine text.
