A list of bishops at the council exists, including about 230 names, though there are indications that the signature lists are defecticedefective. St. [[Athanasius of Alexandria]] puts the number at 318, which is regarded as a mystically significant number, as in [[Genesis]] 14:14, the number of servants whom [[Abraham]] (then still named "Abram") took with him to rescue his nephew [[Lot]].
Only a few [[bishop]]s from the West were present (a pattern common to all the [[Ecumenical Councils]]): Marcus of Calabria, Nicasius of Dijon, Domnus of Stridon, [[Hosius of Cordoba]], and [[Caecilian of Carthage]]. Pope St. [[Sylvester of Rome]] was represented by two of his [[priest]]s.
