According to the ''Historia Augusta'', the emperor Carinus (reigned 283-285) gave great dissatisfaction by promoting one of these cancellarii to praefectus urbi, city prefect, although the veracity of this account is disputed. Other cancellarii were legal scribes or secretaries who sat within the lattice-work which protected the tribunals of the judges from the crowd. The chief scribe in Constantinople was eventually invested with judicial power, and from this office came the modern "chancellor". See also * Glossary of architecture Notes References
