P. 482, n. 3, for Minor read Major (Roman). See the collection of Armenian historians (in French) by Langlois, Paris, 1864-69. According to Moses of Chorene (iii, 42) the partition into Roman and Pers-Armenia was made by Sapor and Arcadius. But the Persian here concerned must have been Shapur III who, (Nöldeke) reigned 383-388. Hence the Roman potentate could be no other than Theodosius the Great. All the Armenian writers mention the division (as Faustus, Byz. vi, 1), but do not name the contracting rulers. Persarmenia comprised the eastern two-thirds of the country. Theodosiopolis, the seat of government in the Roman third, was built c. 420 by Theodosius II (?). Procopius, De Aedif., iii, 15, Moses, iii, 59. Needless to say Nöldeke's dates do not agree with St. Martin's.

meaning, I presume, locally, his readers knowing only the original name. The Greeks as a nation never took to these new names. Thus he makes a similar remark about Antioch (De Aedif.[**,?] v, 5, etc.) which never became Theopolis to the general. Dyrrhachium was about fifty-five miles down the coast from the southernmost point of Dalmatia.

[Footnote 1: Procopius, De Bel. Pers., ii, 29. Arrears of pay for ten years seem to have been owing to him for this service.]
