Text on source
[c. 210] Prima delle bandiere camminavano i due fratelli Fittia come habir (guide) indi tamburi e pifferi. Per mancanza di tamburi essendo la nugara dei selvaggi troppo pesante ci siamo serviti di piccoli carratelli che da Malaga passarono a Marsiglia e di là ripieni di coniak li portai fin qui.
