where she dwelt, he inherited the appellation of Docles or Diodes, which, after his assump-
tion of the purple, was Latinized and expanded into the more majestic and sonorous
Diocletianus' [Aur. Vict. epit. 39. 1]. But T. Mommsen in the Corp. inscr. Lat. iii.
283 argues that the home of Diocletian was Salona, not Doclea. And Patsch in Pauly—
Wissowa Real-Enc. v. 1251 notes that Doclea came to be called Dioclea (Aur. Vict. epit.
39. 1), AtckAeta (Constantinus Porphyrogenitus de administrando i??iperio 29 (iii. 126
Bekker)), Ato/cA^a [id. ib. 35 (iii. 162 Bekker)) in consequence of the conjecture that
Diocletian was born there.

quae supra de hereditariis his nominibus in numis Constantii Chlori exposui. Atque hujus
cum love cognationis causa tot Licinius numos cum ejus dei effigie feriri jussit, quot ante
eum nemo, neque ingratus is adversus nepotem fuit. Nam ut Hercules olim filio Maximiano
leoninum capitis integumentum, ita Iuppiter Licinio fulmen impertivit, quod ille, ut in

1 add a few specimens from my collection which illustrate the relation of Licinius
(figs. 1004—1006) and Licinius Iunior (fig. 1007) to Iupiter Conservator. It is amusing to
see the thunderbolt in the hand of the emperor (figs. 1004, 1005) replaced by a mere
mappa (figs. 1006, 1007).
