The Rights of War and Peace Hugo Grotius 1 neutral 2 citations
Tacitus's history is explicitly named as the source of the cited speech.
It is in the fourth book of his history, in the speech of Petilius Cerealis, who says, “the peace of nations cannot be preserved without armies, nor can armies be maintained without pay, nor pay supplied without taxation.
ch. 9 ¶ -
On the Nature of the Gods Cicero, Marcus Tullius 1 neutral 1 citation
Timaeus's history is explicitly named as the source of the reported anecdote.
and, neatly, as Timaeus does many things, who, having said in his history that on the night Alexander was born the temple of Diana at Ephesus burned down, added that this was by no means to be wondered at, since Diana, having wished to be present at the childbed of Olympias, was absent from home.
book 2 ¶
The harvest records where a citation is made: the paragraph in the citing book, and the chapter that paragraph stands in. It does not record which page of this text is meant. Where the citing text names a locus, you will find it in the quotation.

- beside a chapter, the passages anchored there. A single citation can quote more than one passage, which is why a row carries two figures: the citations the harvest recorded, and the passages its chapters add up to.
Every row here is derived from the harvest, not curated: the citation ledger holds the whole of it, and the atlas states the method.
