circa''' AD 100–110, P./C. Cornelius Tacitus (author), Charles Dennis Fisher (editor), Historiae (1911), book III, chapter xlvii

Accordingly he raised in the name of Vitellius the tribes that border on Pontus, bribed a number of very needy adventurers by the hope of plunder, and, at the head of a force by no means contemptible, made a sudden attack on the old and famous city of Trapezus, founded by the Greeks on the furthest shore of the Pontus. ― translation from: Alfred John Church and William Jackson Brodribb, Complete Works of Tacitus (1873, repr. 1942), The History, book III, chapter xlvii

Rex sive fraudem suspectans, quia plura simul in loca ibatur, sive ut commeatus nostros Pontico mari et Trapezunte oppido adventantis interciperet, propere discedit.

ante''' AD 116, P./C. Cornelius Tacitus (author), Charles Dennis Fisher (editor), Cornelii Taciti Annalium ab Excessu Divi Augusti Libri (1906), book XIII, chapter xxxix
