Aurelianus, an ancient physician, and the only one of the sect of the Methodists of whom we have any remains. He was of Sicca, a town of Numidia; but in what age he lived, cannot be determined: it is probable, however, that he lived before Galen: since, though he carefully mentions all the physicians before him, he takes no notice of Galen. He had read over very diligently the ancient physicians. cians of all sects; and we are indebted to him for the knowledge of many dogmas which are not to be found but in his books de celebritus et tardis passiones. He wrote as he himself tells us, several other works; but they are all perished.
