Hello Epictetus,
Thanks for a link to the thread "Rescript of Honoris." As you can see, I'm on one side of a legitimate argument that can never be solved. But the idea that Rome just sailed off into the sunset is no longer viable. The revolt may well have been against Constantine's administration; the time-line year verifies it. And did later historians use Zosimus' muddled verbiage as a guide? Perhaps so.
