an able grammarian, who lived in the fifth or sixth century. He wrote a Dictionary, in which he made a great number of observations, borrowed from mythology and history, which showed the origin of cities and colonies, of which we have nothing remaining but a mean abridgement by Hermolaus the grammarian; but from that work the learned have received great light; and Sagonius, Caiabon, Scaliger, Salmasius, &c. have employed themselves in illustrating it.
