Also known as: Latin: De e. g. d.

DE EXCERANDIS GENTIUM DIIS. - Nel 1630 G. M. Suárez pubblicò da un codice della biblioteca Vaticana del sec. X un frammento di una apologia cristiana: De e. g. d. attribuendolo a Tertulliano. The text that combats the immorality of the Greek myth is certainly not by Tertullian, but the author and the date of composition have not yet been determined.
