Dio Chrysostom

Dio Chrysostom (; ''Dion Chrysostomos''), Dio of Prusa or Cocceianus Dio (c. 40 – c. 115 AD), was a Greek orator, writer, philosopher and historian of the Roman Empire in the 1st century AD. Eighty of his ''Discourses'' (or ''Orations''; ) are extant, as well as a few letters, a mock essay ''Encomium on Hair'', and a few other fragments. His sobriquet ''Chrysostom'' comes from the Greek , which literally means "golden-mouthed". Provided by Wikipedia
