⁂ Avienus was a 4th century poet who wrote poems on the geography of the world and on the shores of the Mediterranean from Marseilles to Cadiz. At the end of the present work are included the fables of Flavius Avienus (probably under the assumption that they were by the same author), written in elegiac verse in the style of Aesop. It was a popular school-book in the Middle Ages.
