	Recently scholars have determined that the 
	same Rolandus who wrote the Stroma on Gratian's Decretum 
	also composed a theological treatise, the Sententie Rolandi Bononiensis 
	magistri.   Rolandus son of Rainucci cannot be credited as 
	the author of any legal or theological work. He was, nonetheless, most 
	probably a learned theologian who taught for a while at Bologna (before ca. 
	1142).  The proof is established from a comment by the canonist 
	Huguccio (ca. 1190) (C.2 q.6 c.31: Munich, Staatsbibl. 10247, fol. 109r:  
	“et Alexandro tertio Bononie residente in 
	cathedra magistrali in divina pagina ante appellatum eius;” the 
	abbot of Mont Saint Michel, Robert de Torigny also noted that Rolandus 
	taught theology in Bologna.
