Template:Short description Adrianus (Gr. Script error: No such module "Lang".) was a Greek poet who wrote an epic poem on the history of Alexander the Great, which was called the Alexandriad (Script error: No such module "Lang".). What is chiefly known of this poem comes from a mention of the seventh book in the Suda,[1] but only a fragment consisting of one line survives.[2] The Suda mentions, among other poems, a work by a poet "Arrianus" called Alexandriad or Script error: No such module "Lang".,[3] and there can be no doubt that this is the work of Adrianus, which is mistakenly attributed to this "Arrianus".[4][5]
