Certainly not of the Fabulae as we have them, which bear the mark of lateness and ignorance; we may be grateful to Maria Jagoda Luzzatto in Prometheus 10 (1983) 78 n. 11 for exploding the traditionally dating _ante_ 207. Some scholars accept Hyginus as the author of the _Genealogiae_ from which the _fabulae_ were derived, and of _De astronomia_. > Thank you very much ! > � > Nicola Chiarulli > E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_*_* Leofranc Holford-Strevens 67 St Bernard's Road usque adeone Oxford scire MEVM nihil est, nisi ME scire hoc sciat alter?
