Pliny, Letter 10.75

1Julius Largus of Pontus, sir, whom I had never seen nor even heard of (evidently he trusted your judgement), has entrusted to me a kind of administration and service of his loyalty towards you. 2For he asked me in his will to enter upon and accept his inheritance, and then, after taking out fifty thousand sesterces, to hand over all the rest to the cities of Heraclea and Tium, on condition that it should be at my discretion whether I thought works should be built to be dedicated in your honour, or games held every five years, to be called the Trajanic games. 2I thought this should be brought to your notice, above all so that you might consider what I ought to choose.
