Note 142 — Chapter II · THE SOCIAL COMPOSITION OF THE PRIMITIVE POPULUS
Reading edition
Cf. Pais, Storia di Roma, I. 1. 82. The usual opinion (cf. Bernhöft, Röm. Königsz. 8 f.) is that the sources of Dionysius are later and less trustworthy than those of Livy, but Pais asserts that on the whole the two authors drew from the same sources.
