Plutarch, Galba 10.1: … αὶ κεχειρῶσθαι μέγα μέρος τῆς Ῥωμαίων ἡγεμονίας, ἐν σάλῳ γενομένην ἀποστατικῷ Γαλατίαν ἅπασαν, ὑπακούσαι τοῖς παρακαλοῦσιν αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχήν.

Flavius Josephus, Life of Josephus 275: καὶ ταῦτα λέγοντες ἐπώμοσαν τοὺς φρικωδεστάτους ὅρκους παρʼ ἡμῖν, διʼ οὓς ἀπιστεῖν οὐ θεμιτὸν ἡγούμην. καὶ δὴ παρακαλοῦσίν με τὴν κατάλυσιν ἀλλαχοῦ ποιήσασθαι διὰ τὸ τὴν ἐπιοῦσαν ἡμέραν εἶναι σάββατον· ὀχλεῖσθαι δὲ μὴ δεῖν ὑπʼ αὐτῶν τὴν πόλιν τῶν Τιβεριέων ἔφασκον.
