Note 25 — Chapter II
William P. (William Purdie) Dickson translation
As Augusta Emerita in Lusitania only became a colony in 72925. (Dio, liii. 26), and this cannot well have been left out of account in the list of the provinces in which Augustus founded colonies (Mon. Ancyr. p. 119, comp. p. 222), the separation of Lusitania and Hispania Ulterior must not have taken place till after the Cantabrian war.
