Zenon
(
Ζήνων), literary.
1. An historical writer, mentioned by Diogenes Laertius (7.35) as the author of a narrative of the expedition of Pyrrhus into Italy, and a brief history of the (first) Punic war (
Ἡ Πύρρου στρατεία εἰς Ἰταλίαν καὶ Σικελίαν.--
Ἐπιτομὴ τῶν πεπραγμένων Ῥωμαίοις τε καὶ Καρχηδονίοις). Zenon probably lived shortly after the first Punic war. (Voss.
