...L. Posthunius.
...C. Iunius.

SInce that after this Consulship, ten bookes of Livie next ensuing be lost, whome hitherto wee have had for the most sufficient witnesse of this storie, so as now we are in manner destitute and deprived of the best helps of Annals, namely, Diodorus, Dio∣nysius, and Livie: from hence forward wee will use principally in digesting and reckoning the yeeres by the Consuls, the authoritie and testi∣monie of Cassiodorus, the Sicilian records, and Cuspinians booke: yet will wee not in the meane while reject what helpe soever shall be ministred unto us by others. For this yeer ther∣fore Cassiodorus writeth, that L. Postumius and C. Iunius, were created Coss. whose surnames, Megellus, and Brutus Bubulcus, have not been left out so much as in Cuspinians kalender, not in the Sicilian records. Livie also maketh men∣tion of them in his 28 booke, saying thus, Lu. Postumius Megellus the interregent, was crea∣ted Consul with C. Bubulcus, by that very court and assembly which himselfe called and held.
