Mancini
was one of the oldest
families of Roman
nobility; the family was
also called de Lucij or
simply Lucij in Rome for
the fishes on its coat
of arms: the original
armorial bearing of the
Counts Mancini, Lords of
Leprignana was azure two
fishes in pale addorsed
argent (XIV century).
The family has
thousand-year roots in
Italy, and traditionally
asserts a line of
descent from the gens
Hostilia, whose line
took the surname
Mancinus and whose
Lucius Hostilius
Mancinus was Consul in
608 "ab Urbe condita".
In the following
centuries the family had
various lines that
thrived with nobility
everywhere: the most
important for the
kinship with Cardinal
Jules Mazarin, chief
minister of France, was
the line Mazarini
Mancini whose members
were Dukes of Nevers and
Donzy (1660). Today the
line is still
perpetuated with the
branch of Mancini di San
Vittore deriving from
the line of Mancini di
Napoli whose members
were Marquises of
Fusignano. From the XVII
century to the present,
the arms have been
registered as in this
Armorial.
