Hi TT
For clarity, Manilius is our oldest source. I'll reproduce my comment on facebook on another thread just because it was mentioned, but it's worth pointing out that Chris Brennan replied to say that Antiochus's passage is actually Rhetorius, and Levente Laszlo appears to take my points as being unfactual.
I'm not too invested in this topic but I've created a separate thread if anyone wants to explore these ideas more, and also read what I had written. I don't want to detract from this topic.

Excelent
I`ve got Rhetorius the Egyptian and will have a look |
