	Catalogue 27 H-L
		“Gaius Julius Solinus, who probably lived between the middle and the end of the third century (his dating varies from the beginning of the third to the end of the fourth century), was concerned with geography, though not in the modern sense of the term.
		Solinus noted down all the unusual things he came across when reading these works, about peoples and their customs, animals, and plants; he sometimes also made large mistakes.
		The resulting book, written with a degree of elegance, well represents the qualities and limitations of the intellectual class in this period, which was devoted chiefly to works of varied learning rather than of precise theoretical engagement.

	Below the Convergence
		During the Middle Ages one of the most popular books is the Polyhistor of a third-century Roman, Gaius Julius Solinus.
		Borrowing shamelessly from the Roman naturalist Pliny--Solinus is mockingly known as "Pliny's ape"--and with fabulous additions of his own as to the animals and strange humans that inhabit the world, the Polyhistor is to have a lasting influence on the slumbering cartography of the Middle Ages, if only to provide decorative entertainment.
		All is not myth, however, for here also is a drawing of a man holding a long stick and wearing long flat boards on his feet: the first known drawing of skis.

		According to traditional reports, the only creatures accepted by these ants were mares that had recently given birth to foals.
		We would also express our hearty gratitude to anyone who can provide us with details pertaining to any of the unique beasts which we may have neglected.
