Livy (born 59/64 BC, Patavium, Venetia [now Padua, Italy]—died AD 17, Patavium) was, with Sallust and Tacitus, one of the three great Roman historians. His history of Rome became a classic in his own lifetime and exercised a profound influence on the style and philosophy of historical writing down to the 18th century. - Britannica
