thumb|300px|Mulomedicina (1250-1375 ca., Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, pluteo 45.19) Publius (or Flavius) Vegetius Renatus, known as Vegetius (), was a writer of the Later Roman Empire (late 4th century). Nothing is known of his life or station beyond what is contained in his two surviving works: Epitoma rei militaris (also referred to as De re militari), and the lesser-known Digesta Artis Mulomedicinae, a guide to veterinary medicine. He identifies himself in the opening of his work Epitoma rei militaris as a Christian.
AI overview
Vegetius was a late 4th-century Roman writer best known for his military manual *Epitoma rei militaris*, which became one of the most influential guides to warfare in the medieval period and beyond. Though little is known about his life, his detailed writings on military tactics and strategy, along with a surviving veterinary medicine text, made him an important source for understanding Roman military practices and medieval military thought.
