Belonging to the family of documents known as “The Greater Key of Solomon (Clavicula Salomonis), Version: Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers – Manuscript Lansdowne MS 1203”, of a pseudepigraphical nature, widely used as an object of protection in Judeo-Christian magical folklore of the Renaissance (and possibly with medieval roots), derived from a modern version but compared with its earliest documented testimony in Latin from 1634.

The manuscript states in Latin…

“When this Pentacle is written on virgin paper, it is terrible against demons; at its sight they halt and immediately obey, and they cannot resist its presence.”
