It is one of the results of the in-depth analysis of the archive, which has been carried out by the author for five years now. The public register consists of 83 entries of people from areas of the former Reczpospolita and, additionally, 6 names of Austrians and Germans. The set of names is supplemented by the list, published by Blasio Brugi and Aloysio Andrich in 1892 in Rotulus et matricula. The hitherto unknown list, entitled Natio Polona, was produced in the years 1592–1593 and contains 62 names. the fact that the majority of scholars coming from the area of the former Rzeczpospolita made entries in this public register of lawyers, providing their distinguishing marks, including birthmarks, scars, gashes and warts located on their faces, arms and necks is interesting and puzzling. Thus far, this kind of information has not been seen in the analysed public registers of European universities. In addition, following the comparison of the names of persons entered in the Register of the Polish nation (“Metryka nacji polskiej”), published by Henryk Barycz, the author of the article identified 25 names of Polish scholars, not listed elsewhere. Hence, the important conclusion is that, in the years 1592–1600, not all Polish scholars from the University of Padua were registered in the official Register of the Polish nation, and so, the number of Polish students at this university may have been much higher than previously estimated.
