Each record sits in this year because its source places it here, or because a conversion of the source’s date, stated on the record, does. That is a placement, not a settled date, and not a complete account of the year. “No region assigned” means the collection has not fixed where the act took place. How to read a record

Cyprian's second hearing before Galerius Maximus

The transmitted acts report that Galerius Maximus, proconsul, ordered Cyprian to be brought before him at the second hearing on 14 September 258.

Limits: Anonymous transmitted acts, accessed through Wikisource revision 229321, derived from Migne's 1844 edition through Corpus Corporum; this is an attributed narrative, not authenticated verbatim court minutes. Row 27 places the proceeding at Sexti. Row 23 identifies Galerius Maximus as Paternus's successor and describes Cyprian's return from Curubis; row 19 locates the earlier proceeding at Carthage. This connected provincial setting supports North Africa, without establishing that Sexti was within Carthage. The comparison constitution supplies a consular synchronism only and concerns a different act.
