Based on the original Greek. The Greek mss. that Valla used for his translation are lost. In 2008, M. Chambers published a photographic reproduction of the most important manuscript of Valla's translation, ms. Vat. Lat. 1801.
The editio princeps was printed in Treviso in ca. 1483, with revisions by Bartholomaeus Parthenius – see Partenio 1483.
