Nume'nius

2. A rhetorician, who lived in the reign of Hadrian, to whom he addressed a consolatory discourse (παραμυθητικόν) on the death of Antinous. He also wrote Περὶ τῶν τῆς λέξεως σχημάτων, Χρειῶν συναγωγή, and arguments (ὑποθέσεις to the works of Thucydides and Demosthenes. (Suid. s. v. and Eudoxia.) He was the father of the rhetorician Alexander, who is hence frequently called Alexander Numenius. [See Vol. I. p. 123a.]

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.
