Gaius Velleius Paterculus Books
Marcus Velleius Paterculus was a Roman soldier and commander who served during the early imperial period. He served under Emperors Augustus and Tiberius, holding significant military and political positions. His most enduring legacy is his "Compendium of Roman History," which chronicles the era from Rome's legendary origins to the death of Empress Livia. While his work exhibits a bias towards the imperial family and occasional lapses in thorough research, it remains a valuable historical resource.
