Sumario:[EN] The codex kept at the Arnamagnean Institute, in Copenhagen, with the number 805 4o (Kobenhavn, Det Arnamagnaeanske Institut, Kobenhavns Universitet, AM 805 4o), contains a combination of texts featuring legal and short historiographic pieces. In the latter we find a few astronomical references, among them a contemporary mention of the solar eclipse of June 3, 1239 containing what seems to be a reference to the solar corona. This reference could be added to the only other commonly accepted timed report of the corona from medieval times in the Annales Sangallenses regarding the total solar eclipse of the year AD968.
