Abstract
Abstract (Lang: English):Manuscripts of Suetonius' De vita caesarum occasionally include notes referring to Nerva, the emperor who succeeded Domitian, the last of those Caesars. Of these notes, three match almost exactly. This annotation examines the potential sources of those notes. They include not just facts about Nerva but a reference to the Apostle John, which suggests the combination of classical and post classical sources in the exemplar of these three notes.
