Well first of all we have almost nothing written by Aristotle. The only work actually written by him is the Constitution of Athens, rediscovered in 1890. The rest is notes taken by his students. Both forms of Aristotle's writings were known to Quintillian & Cicero.

This is the problem: the attribution of the Const of Athens to him is made by a work that post-dates him even in "virtual text" by several centuries, and physical text by over a thousand years.
