Dominic Mancini (Italian: Domenico Mancini) was an Italian monk who visited England in 1482–3. He witnessed the events leading up to Richard III being offered the English crown. He left in 1483 and wrote a report of what he had witnessed. He called it: De Occupatione Regni Anglie per Riccardum Tercium ('The Occupation of the Throne of England by Richard III').^[1] The account is a major source of information about the period, but it remained in a French library in Lille until rediscovered in 1934 and published by C. A. J. Armstrong.^[2]

Mancini's report was written for Angelo Cato, Archbishop of Vienne, one of the counsellors of King Louis XI of France^[2] and also his doctor and astrologer.

Mancini's report was lost for centuries but was discovered in the Municipal Library in Lille, France, in 1934.
