medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Casamari, it would seem. See C(amille) Enlart, "L'abbaye de San Galgano, pres Sienne, au treizieme sicle," _Melanges d'archeologie et d'histoire_ 11 (1891), 201-40, esp. pp. 204 and 210. Enlart's article is based on his examination of the monastery's cartulary; it names and conjectures the origins of people employed on the abbey's construction.
The standard history remains Antonio Canestrelli, _L'abbazia di San Galgano: monografia storico-artistica con documenti inediti e numerose illustrazioni_ (Firenze: Fratelli Alinari, 1896; not available to me at the moment).
Best again,
