Flaccus "Flaccus" was also a "cognomen" for a branch of the patrician Valerii and others.
Flaccus Flaccus was a "cognomen" of the ancient Roman plebeian family Fulvius, considered one of the most illustrious "gentes" of the city. Cicero and Pliny the Elder state that the family was originally from Tusculum, and that members still lived there in the 1st century.
Flaccus As usual for "cognomina", "Flaccus" was likely originally a nickname, probably of Marcus Fulvius Flaccus, the founder of the family. It has been variously interpreted as meaning "big ears", "flop ears", "floppy", or "fatty".
Granius Flaccus Granius wrote a book "De indigitamentis" ("On Forms of Address"), on the "indigitamenta", that is, those pontifical books that contained prayer formularies or lists of deity names as a reference for accurate invocations. Granius dedicated this work to Caesar, as his contemporary Varro did his "Antiquitates Divinae". The title of the book is taken from a citation in the 3rd-century grammarian Censorinus. Macrobius cites him jointly with Varro as an authority on a religious point.
Flaccus (composer) Flaccus is a composer from the 2nd century BC, of whom little is known. He was either a freedman or a slave of one of Terence's patrons and wrote musical scores for Terence's comedies (playing or composing music was no occupation for a free citizen). Terence mentions him specifically in the opening "didascalia" to each of his comedies, and in addition mentions the type of double reed pipe to be used in each. Some further commentary on the musical modes employed has puzzled scholars: it is not known whether Terence refers to melodies or musical metres.
