Sta'tius, P. Papi'nius

a distinguished grammarian, who. after having carried off the palm in several public literary contests, opened a school at Naples, about the year A. D. 39, according to the calculations of Dodwell. He subsequently removed to Rome, and at one period acted as the preceptor of Domitian, who held him in high honour, and presented him with various marks of favour. He was the author of many works in prose and verse, of which no trace remains, and died probably in A. D. 86. By his wife Agellina, who survived him, he was the father of P. Papinius Statius, the poet.

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.
