The Salviati were an important family in the Republic of Florence.[1]

History

[edit]

Some sources trace the origins of the family to a Gottifredo who lived in Florence in the twelfth century.[2] The first documented member of the family is Cambio di Salvi, who in 1335 was among both the gonfalonieri and the priori [it].[2] In all, twenty members were gonfaloniere and sixty-two occupied the position of priore.[2]
