Translation
Those who managed the Roman state named them rulers, as being a kind of advisors and public speakers. The Greeks later have called them u(/patoi ["highest"] because of their extreme authority. See further under u(/patoi .
Greek original · Adler’s text
Κονσούλους· αὐτοκράτορας αὐτοὺς οἱ τὴν τῶν Ῥωμαίων πολιτείαν διοικοῦντες ὠνόμασαν οἷα δὴ προβούλους καὶ προηγόρους τινάς· οὓς Ἕλληνες μετὰ ταῦτα διὰ τὴν ὑπεροχὴν τῆς ἐξουσίας ὑπάτους προσηγορεύκασι. ζήτει ἐν τῷ ὕπατοι πλατύτερον.
