DionysiusExiguus s Easter table was constructed in the year 525 by DionysiusExiguus for the years 532 626. He obtained it from an Easter table attributed to Patriarch Cyril of Alexandria for the years 437 531. The latter was constructed around the year 440 by means of extrapolation from an Alexandrian Easter table constructed around the year 390 by Patriarch Theophilus of Alexandria . The great historical importance of Dionysius Easter table is twofold From this Easter table Beda Venerabilis Easter cycle Bede s Easter cycle would ultimately be developed by means of which all future Julian calendar dates of Easter Sunday were determined as in column G of Dionysius table With his Easter table Dionysius introduced in passing the Christian era see column A of Dionysius table which would be developed into a full system for dating historical events by Bede two centuries later.

These clefts follow a generally northwest direction. The rim of Dionysius is generally circular and shows little sign of wear. The crater possesses a small ray system with a radius of over 130 kilometers. The formation has a high albedo and appears bright when the Sun is nearly overhead during a full Moon. It is surrounded by a bright halo, with darker material farther out. Some darker deposits are in the form of relatively rare dark rays.

Cassius Dionysius of Utica, Tunisia Utica was an ancient Greek agricultural writer of the 2nd century BC. The Roman Roman naming conventions nomen , Cassius , combined with the Greek cognomen , Dionysius , make it likely that he was a slave perhaps a prisoner of war , originally Greek speaking, who was owned and afterwards freed by a Roman of the gens Cassia . Cassius Dionysius compiled a farming manual in Greek, now lost. Its title was Georgika Agriculture it was divided into twenty books, and was dedicated by its author to the Roman praetor Sextilius. According to Columella , who referred to the work in his own surviving De Agricultura Columella De Agricultura On Farming , an amount equivalent to eight books of Cassius Dionysius work, two fifths of the whole, was translated from a preceding work in Punic language Punic by Mago agricultural writer Mago . ref Pliny the Elder Pliny , Naturalis Historia 18.22 http www.perseus.tufts.edu cgi bin ptext?lookup Plin.

It was brought to Rome and Decimus Silanus was commissioned by the Roman Senate to translate it into Latin. Whether Cassius Dionysius worked independently, or on the basis of Silanus s work, is not known however, his residence in Utica, in formerly Carthaginian north Africa, leads to the suggestion that he knew Punic as well as Greek and Latin. Cassius Dionysius s compilation is occasionally cited by later authors, but its length rendered it unpopular.
