Abronius Silo
Abronius Silo (fl. 1st century BC) was a Latin poet who lived in the latter part of the Augustan age. He was a pupil of the rhetorician Marcus Porcius Latro. His son was also a poet, but degraded himself by writing plays for pantomimes.[1] Only two hexameters of his work survive today.[2] During his life he would face a charge of plagiarism.[3] Although Silo believed he was simply inspired by his teacher.
