APPIAN (Appianus) wasa Greekofficial
ofAlexandria. HesawtheJewishrebellion
of A.u.i i6, and later became a Roman
citizen and advocate and received the
rank ofeques (Knight). In his older years
he held a procuratorship. He died during
the of Antoninus Pius who was
reign
emperor A.D.I38-161. Honest admirer
ofthe Roman empire though ignorant of
the institutions of the earlier Roman
republic, he wrote, in the simple
'common' dialect, 24 books of 'Roman
aftairs', in fact conquests, from the
beginning to the times of Trajan (em-
peror A.0.98-1 17), arranged according
to races. We have fragments of books
I-V, and of VIII and IX; we have lost X
and XVIII-XXIV; books VI-VII and
XI-XVII are complete, and are valuable
records of
military history.
