Musaeus of Marseilles information

Musaeus of Marseilles (fl. c. 450)^[1] was a priest from Massilia. According to Gennadius, he died "during the reign of Leo and Majorian", between 457 and 461. We know very little about his life.

Apparently a prolific writer,^[2] he was also an esteemed preacher whose sermons were read for edification.^[3] We know that he put together a lectionary for Venerius, bishop of Marseilles, around 450 CE, and that he also prepared a responsorial and a sacramentary.^[4]^[5] The sacramentary was a "sort of plenary missal", and is the earliest known of its kind.^[3]
