Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, Vol 2, 1867, p. 239:
"Geminus, Tanusius, a Roman historian who seems to have lived about the time of Cicero...."
Brill's New Pauly: "Tanusius Geminus, the cognomen only in Suet. Iul. 9,2). Roman historian of the Late Republic of whose life nothing is known.
It is also unclear whether his work, which (because of Plut. Caesar 22,3) was not finished until after 55 BC and contained accounts hostile to Caesar
(especially fr. 1 P. = HRR 2, p. 50: on the 'conspiracy' of 66 BC), was an account of contemporary events only [1. 327] or whether it was organised as
an annalistic comprehensive history...." Kierdorf, Wilhelm (Cologne). "Tanusius Geminus." Brill's New Pauly. Antiquity volumes edited by: Hubert Cancik and
