Valerius Antias : ウィキペディア英語版 | Valerius Antias
Valerius Antias (1st century BC) was an ancient Roman annalist whom Livy mentions as a source. No complete works of his survive but from the sixty-five fragments said to be his in the works of other authors it has been deduced that he wrote a chronicle of ancient Rome in at least seventy-five books.〔Howard (1906), p. 161.〕 The latest dateable event in the fragments is mention of the heirs of the orator, Lucius Licinius Crassus, who died in 91 BC. Of the seventy references to Antias in classical (Greek and Latin) literature sixty-one mention him as an authority on Roman legendary history. == Background ==
Antias' family were the Valerii Antiates, a branch of the Valeria gens residing at least from early republican times in the vicinity of ''Antium'' (modern towns of Anzio and Nettuno). He may have been related to Lucius Valerius Antias, placed in command of a convoy of five ships to transport high-ranking Carthaginian prisoners in 215 BC.〔Smith (1870), ''Antias''.〕
