Abronia gens

The gens Abronia was an obscure plebeian family at ancient Rome. The only members of this gens mentioned by Roman writers are Abronius Silo, a Latin poet during the time of Augustus, and his son, who was the author of pantomimes. Epigraphic sources provide a few other instances of this nomen, but the readings are very uncertain, and it is possible that Abronius is merely an orthographic variation of Apronius.
