 he interpreted the legends of the popular religion as based upon historical 

 facts, and taught that the gods of^Mythology were only deified men. His

 gians, and Euhemerists were still to be found at the close of last century. 

 Diodorus Siculus, Polybius, and Dionysius of Halicarnassus have followed 

 in his track ; and the poet Ennius translated his work, which is now lost.
