Textual History

The sigil of Advachiel as given in Theomagia by John Heydon.

The Magical Calendar (ca. 1619) lists Advachiel under the name Adnachiel, giving a sigil and material correspondences. Theomagia by John Heydon (1663) lists him as a genius under the rulership of Hismael. MS Harley 6482, published more recently as A Treatise of Angel Magic, from an older document by Thomas Rudd (1583-1656) around 1699 also features the spirit. He is also listed in The Old Book of Magic by Lauron William de Laurence (1918) while citing Johannes Trithemius, though the exact work drawn from isn't named.
