Numeri singuli traditi 549, 10—570, 8 efficiunt MMCLVIII. 5 Mutationum summa summarum traditarum est CXCII, summarum a me correctarum CCXIII. Singulae mutationes in textu leguntur CCVI. CCXXX igitur ex CCXIII graviore corruptela videtur orta. Mansionum summae traditae XCII efficiunt, a me correctae XCI. Singulae mansiones in textu reperiuntur LXXXVIIII. CXII igitur ex XCII simplici numerorum transmutatione nata est. 6 Dalmatio 9 mil. IIII, sed traiectum Bospori distantiis terrestribus addere non licet. Cf. traiectum Aulona — Hydruntum (609, 4. 611, 2). 572, 1 Pantichio 4 Hannibal 8 Sunt mil. LVIII, quae etiam numeri collecti efficiunt. Haec igitur summa, quam ex VIII P (in quo excidit L propter MIL antecedens) et L V composui, computata est IIII milibus traiectus Cpoli Calcedonem sepositis.

Wess. 570, 3 mutatio Baunne, miles XII 4 mansio Salambria, miles X 5 mutatio Callum, miles X 6 mansio Atyra, miles X 7 mansio Regio, miles XII 8 civitas Constantinopoli, miles XII 571, 1 the total from Serdica as far as Constantinopoli is 413 miles, 2 mutations XII, mansiones XX. 3 The whole total from Burdigala as far as Constantinopolim is made 4 twice twenty one hundred and twenty one miles [i.e., 2,121 miles], 5 mutations CCXXX, mansiones CXII. 6 We traveled moreover in the third consulship of Dalmatius and Zenophilus [i.e., 333 AD]. Wess. 571, 7 on the kalends of June from Calcedonia and we returned to Con 8 stantinople on the seventh kalends of January in the aforementioned consulship. 9 From Constantinople you cross the Pontus, you come to Calcedo 10 nia, you travel through the province Bithynia: 11 mutatio Nassete, miles VIIS 572, 1 mansio Pandicia, miles VIIS 2 mutatio Pontamus, miles XIII 3 mansio Libissa, miles VIIII 4 there is placed king Hannibalianus, who was 5 of the Afri 6 mutatio Brunga, miles XII 7 civitas Nicomedia, miles VIIII 8 the total from Constantinopoli as far as Nicomedia is 58 miles,

570, 3—4 or XX? 571, 1 and 2 They are CCCXCII. The transmitted figures give CCCXLIIII. I certainly believe the total CCCCXIII, which is excessive, arose through a slight corruption from CCCXCIII and was calculated at a time when those five stations to be supplied after 568, 9. 569, 2 and 3 had not yet fallen out. The subsequent totals also testify to this. For there are XXXVII mutations; with the five supplied, they become XLII, which, through the loss of one number, was reduced to XII. There are XVIII mansiones; with the two supplied, Pizo and Hadrianopolis, they become XX. 4 The sum of the six transmitted totals is MMXXXVII, of which two (553, 1. 567, 2) agree with the true total, three (558, 1. 559, 12. 563, 8) certainly do not agree, but were certainly made according to a text much better than ours. The last one remains, 571, 1, which I have just argued must be corrected so that it agrees with the truth. Having done this, we get CCCLXXII + CCCCLXXV + CCLI + CCCCXII + CCCXIIII + CCCXCIII = MMCCXVII, i.e., a sum which hardly deviates from MMCCXXI. — The sum of the totals corrected by me is MMCCII. The individual figures transmitted from 549, 10 to 570, 8 give MMCLVIII. 5 The sum of the transmitted totals of mutations is CXCII, of those corrected by me CCXIII. Individual mutations are read in the text as CCVI. Therefore, CCXXX seems to have arisen from CCXIII through a more serious corruption. The transmitted totals of mansiones give XCII, those corrected by me give XCI. Individual mansiones are found in the text as LXXXVIIII. Therefore, CXII arose from XCII through a simple transposition of numbers. 6 Dalmatio 9 4 miles, but one must not add the crossing of the Bosporus to the land distances. Cf. the crossing Aulona — Hydruntum (609, 4. 611, 2). 572, 1 Pantichio 4 Hannibal 8 It is 58 miles, which the sum of the individual figures also gives. Therefore, this total, which I have composed from VIII of P (in which L fell out due to the preceding MIL) and L of V, was calculated having set aside the 4 miles of the crossing from Constantinople to Chalcedon.
