1 P. 23: the representation of Trajan on contorniates is surely due not to his ‘imperialism’ but to his building activity in Rome: cf. Murray, Oswyn, Hist. xiv (1965), 44, n. 17Google Scholar. On pp. 23, 115, nn. 103 and 145 Demandt writes as though it was an established fact that the S.H.A. were contemporaries of Ammian; some words of qualification were surely necessary.
