one of the ladies who attended the philosophical instructions of Plotinus when he was at Rome in the early part of the reign of the emperor Philip, A. D. 244. Her affluence is indicated by the circumstance that the philosopher resided and taught in her house, and her age by the circumstance that her daughter, of the same name with herself, was also one of his zealous disciples. (Porphyr. Vit. Plotin. 100.3, 9.)
