a celebrated writer in the third century, well known by his treatise De Die Natali. This treatise, which was written about the year 28, Gerard Vossius calls it a little book of gold; and declares it to be a most learned work, of the highest use and importance to chronologers, since it connects and determines, with great exactness, some of the principal eras in pagan history. It was printed at Cambridge, with the notes of Lindembrokius, in 1695.
