person
Cocceius
also: Coctio, Coctium
A person (probably a debtor or party to a money matter) whose business Cicero had entrusted both to Atticus and apparently to Varro; mentioned only in passing in Fam. 9.4. The manuscript reading 'de Coctio' is usually emended to Cocceius. Identity otherwise unknown.
Reading notes
- Ad Atticum 16.15 §5 what Cocceius's answer was
Cocceius, a creditor or financial contact of Cicero's, from whom money had been expected; his reply, like Eros's report, dashes Cicero's hope of funds coming through Dolabella.
