Livius AndronicusIn classical history, Lucius Livius Andronicus was a Greek colonist who was captured by the Romans at Tarentum on the southern coast of Italy. He was made a slave to a Livian noble. Later freed, he taught and produced for the uncultured Romans their first formal play in 240 BC. Only fragments of his works survive. The most important work is the Odusia, a Latin version of Homer's Odyssey.
