Zondadari was made a cardinal by Pope Pius VII during the consistory of 23 February 1801 and given the title of Cardinal Priest of Santa Balbina. Zondadari died suddenly in Siena on 13 April 1823 and his body was entombed in the Cathedral of Siena. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Felice_Zondadari International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes CURIA\RSomerset 13/10/2023 CURIA\RSomerset 13/10/2023 c19b2e0c-82a6-49ed-b6e3-1ad2815a8d97
