Paeanius

Paeanius ( , ), His year of death is unknown, but it must have been after 379 when he published his translation of Eutropius.}} was a late Roman lawyer and translator who lived in the Eastern provinces. He was author of a translation into Greek language of the Latin historical work of Eutropius, the ''Breviarium ab urbe condita'' (or ''Breviarium historiae Romanae''). His translation, which has survived in a handful of manuscripts, is a rare example of a near-contemporary translation from Latin to Greek, as Eutropius’s ''Breviarium'' was written in 369 and translated by Paeanius around 379.
