Pliny
BOOK II. c. 67 (67). The same Nepos, when speaking of the northern
circumnavigation, relates that to Q. Metellus Celer the colleague of
Afranius in the consulship, but then a proconsul in Gaul, a present
was given by the King of the Suevi consisting of some Indians who,
sailing from India for the purpose of commerce, had been driven by
storms into Germany.
