Procopius,
Secret History 26.40 (web address 1). See on this Theodoridis'
Photius edition, vol.II p.XCII.
Procopius describes the scheme by which Hephaistos, prefect in Alexandria in 545/546 CE and later governor, terminated--with the approval of Justinian (cf.
iota 446)-- the long tradition of free grain distribution to the city's poor; cf. Kaldellis (119). On Hephaistos, see PLRE IIIa s.v. Hephaestus.
