Appian description |
---|
Appian of Alexandria (; Greek: Appianòs Alexandreús; Latin: Appianus Alexandrinus; c.95 c.AD 165) was a Greek historian with Roman citizenship who flourished during the reigns of Emperors of Rome Trajan, Hadrian, and Antoninus Pius. * He was born c. 95 in Alexandria. After holding the chief offices in the province of Aegyptus (Egypt), he went to Rome c. 120, where he practised as an advocate, pleading cases before the emperors (probably as advocatus fisci). It was in 147 at the earliest that he was appointed to the office of procurator, probably in Egypt, on the recommendation of his friend Marcus Cornelius Fronto, a well-known litterateur. Because the position of procurator was open only to members of the equestrian order (the "knightly" class), his possession of this office tells us about Appian's family background. * His principal surviving work ( Rhomaiká, known in Latin as Historia Romana and in English as Roman History) was written in Greek in 24 books, before 165.
