Comments | See note on Plin.Ep.2.17.12. Chris Whitton 'Unlike many of the other borrowings here, this is well enough attested in Greek authors too, from Theophrastus (4-3c B.C) on. Its Latin uses are clustered around P's time (here; 5.6.27; Suet. Vesp. 20.1; Celsus Digest (c. AD 130, quoted in Ulpian).' |
