Miscellanea Historica Hibernica, also known as MS G1, is a manuscript miscellany, a miniature vellum commonplace book. Compiled by Pilip Ballach Ó Duibhgeannáin during the years 1579 - 1584, it is described on the front endpaper as ''Miscellanea Historica Hibernica'' in a later hand. Ó Duibhgeannáin was a resident of Cloonybrien, County Roscommon. The ''Miscellanea'' contains an Irish rendering of an extract from a Latin tract found in Roger Bacon's 13th century version of ''Secretum Secretorum'' on physiognomy. Irish priest and historian Paul Walsh suggested that Ó Duibhgeannáin was a son of Fer Caogad mac Ferghal Ó Duibhgeannáin, who died at Cloonybried in 1581. ==Sources== * ''Irish Medieval Learning'', by Fr.
