Leo or LEON

or LEON, jurists.

1. A jurist, who lived about the time of Theodosius II. or shortly afterwards. He is mentioned by Sidonius Apollinaris in the following lines (Narbo, 5.448-551), which are remarkable from showing at how late a period the laws of the twelve tables formed a part of legal instruction:--

" Sive ad doctiloqui Leonis aedes,
Quo bis sex tabulas docente juris,
Ultro Claudius Appius lateret,
Claro obscurior in decemviratu."

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.
