Gaius Calpurnius Piso




He was one of the most popular men in Rome , partly for his skill in poetry and music, partly for his love of luxury and generosity. It is probably he who is referred to by Calpurnius Siculus under the name of Meliboeus, and he is the subject of the panegyric ''De laude Pisonis''.
