"Pollia'nus, an epigrammatic poet, five of whose pieces are preserved in
the Greek Anthology. From the first of these epigrams it is probable that he was a grammarian
the third is addressed to a poet named Florus, who is possibly the Florus who lived under
Hadrian
but there is no other indication of the writer's age." Smith's Dictionary of Greek
and Roman Biography and Mythology, Vol 3 1870, p. 436.....
From Brill's New Pauly: "Pollianus, Epigrammatist of the golden age of the Imperial skoptic epigram. Of his output, the following survives: a
description of a painting - attributed without evidence to the sculptor Polyclitus (Anth. Pal. 16,150) and four satirical poems....."
