According to Erik Drigsdahl, this calendar has a possible affiliation with Amiens, but lacks the key entries for that city, while having at least 12 Amiens-related feasts, but none in red. St. Merri of Autun is mentioned (8/29), but Drigsdahl maintains that is too far south for this manuscript's production. However, Merri was known and venerated in Paris
