Remarks:
Krusch (1880: 5-23) considers Augustalis' Laterculus to be the source of the Supputatio Romana (first half of the fourth century) and dates it to the third century. According to Schwartz (1905: 63-66), Augustalis wrote it in the fifth century. The same solution is proposed by Mosshammer (2008: 227-228). The question remains without a definitive solution (Stern 2012: 327-328, n. 93). According to Krusch (1880: 7-16), the Laterculus presented a 100-years cycle. Mosshammer (2008: 224-228) suggests one of 84 years.
