Note 094
The negotiations of Justinian with the
Axumites, or Aethiopians, are recorded by Procopius (Persic.
l. i. c. 19, 20) and John Malala, tom. ii. p. 163 - 165, 193
- 196.) The historian of Antioch quotes the original
narrative of the ambassador Nonnosus, of which Photius
(Bibliot. Cod. iii.) has preserved a curious extract.]
