Brill's New Pauly: "Marcus Epigrammatic poet, Writer of epigrams, probably identical with the rhetor of the same name who, in the Augustan era, was a pupil of Cestius Pius, and who is described by Seneca maior as a man of eloquence and caustic humour (contr. 2,6,11
suas. 7,7,12 etc.). Generally, his 37 mainly erotic-sympotic epigrams from the ‘Garland’ of Philippus are successful and elegant variations of conventional themes..." Degani, Enzo (Bologna). "Argentarius." Brill's New Pauly. Antiquity volumes edited by: Hubert Cancik and
