- Notes:
- Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, Vol , 1867, p. 1:
Brill's New Pauly: "Writer of an informative Latin didactic poem about the hunt (Cynegetica = Cyn.) in several bks., of which one fragment
of 541 hexameters from the first bk. is extant. G. was perhaps of Faliscan ( Falisci) origin (Cyn. 40). Ovid mentions him and his didactic poem in the Epistulae ex Ponto
(4,16,35)
in the case of the spelling Gratius attested by the Ovid MSS, it is probably a matter of an historically incorrect variation..."
