Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Alipius
From Wikisource
Alipius, born at Alexandria, in Egypt, lived about the year 360. His manuscript "De Musicis" is preserved in the library at Bologna. Without this manuscript we should never have known in what manner the ancients wrote their music. Their musical characters appear to havebeen 1620 in number, as may be seen by the tables of Alipius.
