Grattius was a Roman poet of the age of Augustus. He was the author of a Cynegetica, a poem on hunting, of which 541 hexameter lines remain. He describes various kinds of game, methods of hunting, and the best breeds of horses and dogs. He may have been a native of Falerii but this assertion rests on the doubtful authority of a single lost manuscript, employed in an early printing. The only reference to him in any extant ancient writer is a passing reference in Ovid, Ex Ponto.

  • Scrisse il Cynegeticon, un trattato sulla cinegetica (arte della caccia con i cani) in 540 versi, la cui prima edizione a stampa si ebbe a Bologna nel 1504 e che fu spesso pubblicato insieme alle opere di Tito Calpurnio Siculo e di Nemesiano. Gli venne attribuito nel XVII secolo anche un poema in greco (Halieuticon) che invece la testimonianza di Plinio attribuisce con certezza ad Ovidio.
