Abstract
This paper presents a new Castillian testimony of the Alphonsine Estoria de las Bretañas, copied in a factitious codex of the 14th and 15thcenturies (BNE Ms. 10146) that transmits, among other works, the Historia troyana polimétrica. It is a fragment of the Estoria de Bruto (Historia regum Britanniae §§ 6-14) added to the Historia troyana of Peter of Castile (c. 1365-69). Its wording seems to date back to an Alphonsine work notebook based on the First variant version, perhaps through a French interposed compen-dium. In addition to a text editing, we provide a comparative analysis with the General estoria and the well-known Latin (the vulgate and the version variant) and French (Roman de Brut and Estoire de Brutus) sources
