Home > Granius Licinianus

Granius Licinianus was a Roman annal ist, believed to have lived in the age of the Antonines ( 2nd century AD).

He was the author of a brief summary of Roman history based on the work of Livy, which he utilized as a means of displaying his antiquarian learning. Accounts of omens, portents, prodigies and other remarkable events apparently took up a considerable portion of the work. Some fragments of the books relating to the years 163- 178 BC are preserved in a British Museum manuscript.
