VICTOR of Tunona.

VIctor Bishop of Tunona in Afric, was also one of the zealous Defenders of the three Chapters; for which reason he was banish'd into Egypt, and afterwards shut up in a Monastery at Constan∣tinople. * 1.1 Isidore of Sevil informs us, That he made a Chronicon from the beginning of the World to the first Year of the Empire of Justin the younger, wherein he plac'd in Order the Consuls, the most memorable Events of War, and the Holy Fathers of the Church. We have nothing now remaining but one part of this Chronicon, which begins where that of St. Prosper ends, i. e. in the Year 444, and ends at the Year 565. In it he particularly describes what concerns the History of Eutyches, and the Affair of the three Chapters. Canisius was the first that caus'd it to be printed at Ingolstadt in the Year 1600, and since that Scaliger has inserted it into his Treasure of Time.
