Quietus, Avidius
a contemporary of the younger Pliny, had been a friend of Paetus Thrasea, and used to relate to Pliny many things concerning that distinguished mar.. He supported Pliny when the latter accused Publicius Certus in the senate, in A. D. 96, on account of the share he had had in the condemnation of Helvidius by Domitian. (Plin. Ep. 6.29, 9.13.15.)
