To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Conference of Sulla and Archelaus at Aulis. Conditions of peace. Archelaus to deliver his fleet to Sulla ; Mithri- dates to retire from all the islands, Asia, Bithynia, Paphlagonia, and Galatia ; C. Oppius and M'. Aquilius to be set free, and all the captives restored. Franeken has called attention to the omission of Cap- padocia from this list of territories to be ceded by Mithridates, and to the fact that Licinianus has described Sulla as demanding the cession of Aquilius, when he must have k...nown that he had been put to death by torture, as recorded by Cicero, the elder Pliny, and Appian (del. Manil. V, Plin. xxxiii. 18, App. Mithr. xxi). Another weak point is the doubt which attaches to the place where these con- ditions were arranged; in one passage Licinianus appears to name Aulis, later on Dardanus in Asia Minor. Sulla executes the leaders of revolt at Ephesus and restores to Nicomedes Euergetes the sovereignty of Bithynia. Some details are added of the family and wives of Nicomedes.
