Yes, I like that site.
I see on wikipedia that this Miles Russell cites Fronto as a source for a disaster of some sort in Britain. The passage in question is this:
Loeb editor C.R. Haines says, in regards to the claim about the Britons:
For the life of me, I can't figure out Spart. Vit. Hadr. 5. Does anyone know to what this alludes?

Quote:Again under the rule of your grandfather Hadrian what a number of soldiers were killed by the Jews, what a number by the Britons!
Fronto, Ambr. 236, or page 21 in Loeb II

Quote:Not recorded elsewhere; but see Spart. Vit. Hadr. 5.
