ἦν δὲ Ἀβουνδάντιος ἀπὸ τῆς ἐν τῇ Θρᾴκῃ Σκυθίας, ἐκ δὲ τῶν Γρατιανοῦ στρατευσάμενος χρόνων καὶ ἐπὶ Θεοδοσίου τιμῶν μεγίστων ἐπιβάς, ἤδη δὲ καὶ στρατηγὸς καὶ ὕπατος ἀποδεδειγμένος. ἐπεὶ δὲ καὶ τοῦτον Εὐτρόπιος ἠβουλήθη τῆς οὐσίας τε ὁμοῦ καὶ πάσης τιμῆς ἐκπεσεῖν, ἔγραφε μὲν ταῦτα ὁ βασιλεύς, ἀπηλαύνετο δὲ Ἀβουνδάντιος τῶν βασιλείων, οἴκησιν τὴν ἐν Φοινίκῃ Σιδῶνα λαχὼν καὶ ἐν ταύτῃ τὸν λοιπὸν χρόνον βεβιωκώς.
