Note 95 — Chapter II
Reading edition
Pepin of Heristal restored the annual national assembly of the Franks, which had fallen in desuetude since the days of Ebroin; when the younger Pepin, the son of Charles Martel, finally added the name of King to the exercise of the royal power which he wielded, he changed the month of meeting from March to May; the Campus Martius became accordingly a Campus Majus.
