| Commentary on the Toponym: |
Die Bezeichnung Massilia Graecorum für das heutige Marseille scheint durchgängig späthellenistisch-frühkaiserzeitlich bis in die Spätantike geläufig gewesen zu sein, wie die zeitliche Streuung der Belege für das Toponym zeigt: Plin. nat. 3, 34: Massilia Graecorum; Itinerarium Maritima 507, 1f.: Massilia Graecorum, portus; Not. Dign. Oc. 42, 16: Praefectus militum musculariorum, Massiliae Graecorum. |
