Pactye
A town in the Thracian Chersonesus, on the Propontis, to which Alcibiades retired when he was banished by the Athenians, B. C. 407.
Pacuvius, M. The greatest of the Roman tragic poets, was born about B. C. 220, at Brundusium, and was the son of the sister of Ennius. His tragedies were taken from the great Greek writers; but he did not confine himself, like his predecessors, to mere translation, but worked up his materials with more freedom and independent judgment. Padus (Po). The chief river of Italy.
