Musaeus Grammaticus

Late-antique Greek poet (5th-6th century AD) · Writers

Musaeus Grammaticus probably belongs to the beginning of the 6th century AD, as his style and metre are evidently modeled on those of Nonnus. He lived before Agathias (530-582) and has been identified with a correspondent of Procopius of Gaza.

Musaeus Grammaticus is read about 15 times a day, in 16 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 120 days, one point a day.
