Didymus Chalcenterus (Latin; Greek: ''Didymos chalkenteros'', "Didymus bronze-guts"; c. 63 BC – c. AD 10), was an Ancient Greek scholar and grammarian who flourished in the time of Cicero and Augustus. == Life == The surname "bronze-guts" came from his indefatigable industry: he was said to have written so many books that he was unable to recollect what he had written in earlier ones, and so often contradicted himself. (Athenaeus records that he wrote 3500 books; Seneca gives the figure of 4000.)〔Athenaeus 4.139; Seneca ''Letters'' 88. Cf. also Quintilian 1.9.19.〕 As a result, he acquired the additional nickname "book-forgetter". He lived and taught in Alexandria and Rome, where he became the friend of Varro. He is chiefly important as having introduced Alexandrian learning to the Romans.
