Minucius Macrinus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Minucius Macrinus (fl. 1st century AD) was a friend of Pliny the Younger, to whom the latter addressed many of his Epistles,[1] but of whose life we have no particulars, other than that he had a son, Minucius Acilianus, who was also a friend of Pliny's.[2]
