Fl. mid-1st century BC, based at Naples. Wrote and spoke in Latin. A wealthy, hospitable friend of Cicero whom Cicero explicitly calls "a learned man" and "an Epicurean" in their surviving correspondence -- one of the clearest cases of Cicero directly labeling a private acquaintance by philosophical school rather than merely alluding to it.
