AFter Cornelius and Genutius Consuls, Cas∣siodorus bringeth in Pub. Sempronius, and App. Claudius, and of purpose over-skippeth Q. Gulo and Fabius Pictor. Zonaras, Q. Gallus and C. Fabius. Of them speaketh Eutropius, saying; When Q. Gulo and Fabius Pictor were Consuls, the Picenates raised warre; and by the Consuls next following, to wit, P. Sempro∣nius and App. Claudius, they were vanquished. Plinie also in his 33 booke and 3 chap. When Q. Fabius (quoth hee) was Consull, silver was coined and stamped for money, five yeeres be∣fore the [second] Punicke war. These Consuls, Velleius also reckoneth in his first booke. But Sigonius and Onuphrius advertise us, that the booke of Eutropius is verie faultie in one of these Consuls, and that in lieu of Quin. Gulo, it should be read Q. Ogulphius: for of this Gulo, there is no place besides, any mention: so as they would have, that it should be Q. Ogulvius, son of L. nephew of A. surnamed Gallus, who a little before was sent in embassage to Ptolo∣meus. And it falleth out passing well, that they should match Ogulvius a commoner, with Fa∣bius a Patritian. Also Onuphrius testifieth, that in the most auncient hand written bookes of Eutropius, the name is found of Ogulvius. And, as both the Greeke records, and also Zo∣naras, togither, with the more auncient and perfect copies of Eutropius, agree to this his judgement: so Hubertus Goltzius likewise in his catalogue of Consuls, embraceth the same: and that which maketh most for the purpose, the old antiquities of coine witnesse as much. But in the meane while this is worth the obser∣vation, that often times in the most auncient peeces of money, the letter C. is written for G: as for example here, Ocul. Cal. for Ogul. Galba.
