About “Epitome of the Philippic History of Pompeius Trogus”
The Epitome of the Philippic History of Pompeius Trogus, written by the second-century Roman writer Justin, is an abridgment of Trogus' larger work, Historiæ Philippicæ, which no longer exists. Justin's summary and the accompanying Prologi are the only surviving parts of Trogus' original history. This work provides a condensed version of the original, offering insights into the history of various peoples and empires as presented by Trogus. Without the full text of Historiæ Philippicæ, Justin's version remains the primary source for understanding Trogus' historical account. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
