Gaius Vettius Aquilinus Juvencus (fl. c. 330) was a Roman Christian poet from Hispania who wrote in Latin. His work was well known in the Middle Ages, being cited for example, in the British Isles.
==Life== The only source on Juvencus's life is Jerome. He was a Spaniard of very good birth, became a priest, and wrote in the time of Constantine I. From one passage in his work (II, 806, sq.) and from Jerome's Chronicle it must be inferred that he wrote about the year 330.
