Naturalis Historea
(The Natural History)

The only extant work of Pliny is the Natural History; its survival is due to the very nature of the work, covering as it does almost the entire field of ancient knowledge, based on the best authorities. As a result it was used for reference over the following centuries by countless scholars, especially in medicine, plants and plant products (e.g., wine), agriculture, architecture, sculpture, geology and mineralogy.
