Epitomes

Large portions of Livy's history are now lost, but some idea of their contents can be found in epitomes or abridgments, such as:

• Florus, Epitome of Roman History - 2nd century summary of Roman wars, based largely on Livy
• Perochiae - 4th century Latin epitome, which preserves Livy's book divisions
• Eutropius, Abridgement of Roman History - 4th century, based largely on Livy
• Spanish translation (source www.livius.org) Periochae Períocas Traducción al castellano
