The calendar and the inscription on the Cathedral of Lucca

The calendar and the inscription for pilgrims on the Cathedral of Lucca.
On the rich facade of San Martino, the Cathedral of Lucca, there are many bas-reliefs and inscriptions.
One of these represents the months of the year and the typical actions of the period represented (such as putting wine in barrels in October).
Further down there is a long inscription which, if I am not mistaken, is a kind of guarantee for pilgrims that they will not be cheated during the visit to the Holy Face.

The inscription that the apothecaries and money changers had engraved and positioned, in which they pledged not to cheat in the exchange of money and not to counterfeit the products sold to pilgrims. The inscription is from 1111 and these are some significant passages: "(...) All the apothecaries and money changers swear that from that moment on they would not commit thefts, frauds or forgeries within the court of San Martino or in the houses where hospitality is given" and concludes "(...) Every foreigner should read this inscription in this trust and fear nothing for himself".
