Sera'pion

2. Aelius Serapion, of Alexandria, a distinguished sophist and rhetorician, in the time of Hadrian. (Suid. s. v.) The following works of his are enumerated by Suidas : Ηερί τῶν ἐω ταἰς μελέταις άμαρτανομένων, ᾿Ἀκροάσεων βιβλία ς, Πανηγνρικὸς ἐπ̓ Ἀδριανῷ τῷ βασιλεῖ, Βουλευτικὸς Ἀλεξανδρεῦσιν, Εἰ δικαίως Πλάτων Ὅμηρον ἀπέπεμψ̓ε τῆς πολιτείας, Τέχνη ῥητορική, and many other works. There is also a little work on astrology ascribed to him. (Lambec. vii. p. 256.) The Greek Anthology contains an epigram of his. (Brunck. Anal. vol. ii. p. 291; Jacobs, Anth. Graec. vol. iii. p. 5, vol. xiii. p. 951.)

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
