The Chancellery or Divanatun is the working office of the Catholicos.

This archival fonds contains documents from 1839 to 1935, although some of them date before this period. Most part of the archives of pontifical representations started to arrive to Vatican since the mid Seventies of the 20th century.
During the cataloguing, the fonds was divided into “Archivio Antico”; “Archivio mons. Cassulo” e “Archivio mons. Valeri-Mazzoli-Bartoloni-Dini”. The last one is composed by 101 dossiers.

The oldest documents in the Consulate fonds date back to 1843, to the foundation of the Consulate of Palestine during the Kingdom of Sardinia. According to the papers the Consulate closed in 1849 leaving the defence of the citizens to the Consulate of France.

The Royal Decree dated November 17th, 1871 establishes the Italian Consulate in Palestine. The papers cover the history of the Consulate until its closure, in June 10th, 1940. At that date the protection of Italian interests was entrusted to the Spanish Consulate. The activity of Consul Quinto Mazzolini and his Bureau in Rome (Ufficio Stralcio) lasted during 1943.

This inventory includes the transcription (into Arabic and Turkish) and translation into English of the 18 volumes of reports (55% in Ottoman Turkish, 45% in Arabic) from the Ottoman municipality of Jerusalem between 1892 and 1917.

As the Correspondence Office of Imperial Treasury is a unit that acts as the secretary of the ministry, this fonds includes official letters written by the ministry to the state offices in İstanbul and in the country.
The starting and ending Hijri dates for this fonds are: 1266-1342.
