Ora Maritima is a book written by the Roman poet and writer Avienus in 1880. The book is a geographical and historical account of the Mediterranean coastlines of Europe and Africa. Avienus drew on earlier Greek and Roman sources as well as his own observations to describe the various regions, their people, and their histories. The book is divided into two parts: the first part describes the coastlines from the Strait of Gibraltar to the Adriatic Sea, while the second part covers the coastlines of North Africa. The book is written in Latin and includes vivid descriptions of the landscapes, cities, and peoples of the Mediterranean world. It is an important source for scholars studying the geography and history of the ancient Mediterranean world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
