Description

The second century poet Oppian of Cilicia wrote a celebrated epic on the subject of ‘Fishing’ in five books, dedicated to the Emperor Marcus Aurelius. It deals with the habits and characteristics of fish, as well as giving instructions for the art of fishing. Though not precisely poetical in nature, the ‘Halieutica’ preserves a great deal of curious information that would have been otherwise lost.
