Roman History
A History of Rome from the Legendary Landing of Aeneas to the Reign of Alexander Severus
Book • 2023
Written in Ancient Greek, 'Roman History' by Cassius Dio spans 80 volumes, although many have survived only in fragments or through later summaries by authors such as Zonaras and John Xiphilinus.
The work covers the founding of Rome, the Roman Republic, and the Roman Empire up until the reign of Alexander Severus.
Dio's official duties and extensive research make his work a vital source for Roman history, particularly for the late Republic and early Empire periods.
