1 It is not mentioned in I. I. Sokolov's Materialui po zemel'no-khozyaistvennomu buitu Vizantii in the Izvyestiya of the Leningrad Academy of Sciences, Series vii, 1931, No. 6 (Classe des sciences sociales), 683–712.

2 On p. 71 n.1 a reference is given to V.V. vol. i; on p. 196 n.4 to V.V. vol. 17; can a reader be expected to know, without explanation, that the letters refer to the Vizantiiskii Vremennik?

3 The proof-reading is otherwise poor; e.g. Read for ουθετικός (p. 81, and often) νοιθετητικός; for Steuergemeinder (p. 96) Steuergemeinde; for epiboli (p. 97) epibole; for Dolger (p. 98) Dölger; for Theologii (p. 114 and often) Theologi; for Dioscurus (p. 116 twice and in Index) Dioscorus; for Ostrogorski (p. 116) Ostrogorsky; for Miller (p. 133) Müller, ; for ‘In the last ’ (p. 138)Google Scholar ‘In the East’; for Izvestiza (p. 161) Izvestiya; for Zapistii (p. 216) Zapiski; Pacomius and Pachomius both appear on p. 226; for Oeconomos Didaskalos (p. 226) read Oecumenicos Didaskalos; for Holospyrism (p. 235) Holosphyrism (if such a word exists at all); for Timorion (p. 247) Timarion; and are not Pachymeres and Blemmydes better forms than Pachymer (p. 126 and often) and Blemmydas (p. 229)?
