Canusius, presbyter at Rome, late 5th c.

Reference to prosopography: PCBE Italie 1: Canvsivs 1, 2, 3

Chronological and
geographical framework:

Attested presbyterial activity: 487 - 495 in Rome (Rome),

Discussion:

We think that the presbyter Canusius ('Canusius 1' in PCBE) who was present at the council of Rome in 487 AD (660) is identical with the ">661, 'Canusius 3'  in PCBE), whereas the repetition of">660) is identical with the one who was present at the council of Rome in 495 AD (661, 'Canusius 3'  in PCBE), whereas the repetition of the name of Canusius ('Canusius 2') in the acts of the council of 487 AD is a result of the copyist's errror.
