FASTI ROMANI ROME AND CONSTANTINOPLE

of such name, who compiled the Chronicles during Justinian’s
reign. Phot. Cod. 69 a historical book was read to me as a
summary of secular history; its author was the famous
Hesychius, a Miletian, son of Hesychius and Philosophy
[Suid.p.1707 A Hesychius the Miletian son of Hesychius the
lawyer and Sophias], therefore the book title is pertained about
the Roman and world history. It begins from the reign of the
Assyrian king Belus and ends at the death of the king Anastasius
[hence Suidas not quite accurately event during the reign of king
Anastasius]. This study is divided in six parts (chapters) [Suid. he
divided the historical chronology in six periods; like this he entitles
each book; in each chapter he writes about the acts of the Roman
kings at certain times, and the dynasties of the ruling tyrants of
various nations, and also the events which happened in Byzantium
until the reign of king Anastasius].The first chapter describes the
events before the Trojan wars; the 2 nd reports on the events from the
sacking of Troy until the Rome founding; the 3 rd chapter covers the
period from the Rome founding until the 68 th Olympiad, when the
hegemony of the Roman consuls abolished the king; the 4rth chapter
writes about the reign of the consuls in Rome (from the 68 th
Olympiad that is) until the 182 nd Olympiad whne Julius Caesar
abolished that ruling and he became a monarch; the 5 th chapter
includes the events from the monarchy of Julius Caesar until the
Byzantium came to it great glory (became glorious), at the 278 th
Olympiad; and the 6 th chapter commences from the time CP was
happy to be reigned by Constantinus until the death of Anastasius.-
His death happened at the 11 th indiction, when Magnus was the sole
consul [conf.a.518.1.2]. The interval at the 1106 .-I read another
book of his where the happened (the taken place) by Justin and his
enthronement when Anastasius died; following he witnessed the
Justinian enthronement after Justin and some other events until
some years in his reign. And after that, he stopped writing because
he was psychologically traumatized by the death of the child of
Joannes. The extant work about the distinguished for the education
scholars is named by Suidas: he catalogued or tabulated the famous
scholars. The few pages entitled about the Constantinople pertained
are probably a fragment of the 5 th book of his history.)
