Appearance
- For others of this gens, see Manlia gens. For other Manlii with the cognomen "Acidinus", see Acidinus (cognomen).
Manlius Acidinus was a young man of ancient Rome who was going to pursue his studies at Athens at the same time as a young Cicero, in 45 BC.[1] He is perhaps the same Acidinus who sent intelligence to Cicero respecting the death of Marcellus.[2][3]
