Apicius (disambiguation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Apicius was a name applied to at least three Roman epicures:
- The first lived during the Roman Republic
- The second and most famous, Marcus Gavius Apicius, lived at the time of the emperor Tiberius
- The third lived at the time of the Emperor Trajan
Apicius is most familiar as the title of the surviving Roman cookbook, usually said to have been compiled in the 4th or 5th century AD. The name also occurs in the title Apici Excerpta ("Extracts from Apicius") of a completely different Latin cookbook attributed to Vinidarius.
