HerodianFor the grammarian, see Aelius Herodianus. Herodian or Herodianus of Syria (c. 170-240) was a minor Roman civil servant who wrote a colourful Roman History in eight books for the years 180 to 238. His work is not entirely reliable, although his relatively unbiased account of Elagabalus is more useful than that of Dio Cassius.
