Antonius Rufus (grammarian)

[2] The scholiast on Horace who was historically called Cruquianus speaks of an Antonius Rufus who wrote plays both praetextatae and togatae,[3] but whether he is the same as the grammarian is uncertain.

This reference is considered by some scholars altogether unreliable.

[4] The humanist Johann Glandorp, in his Onomasticon, states on the authority of Helenius Acron, the grammarian and commenter on Horace, that Antonius Rufus translated both Homer and Pindar, but there is no passage in Acron in which the name of Antonius Rufus occurs.
