Guido delle Colonne
Guido delle Colonne was a 13th-century Italian judge and writer, who lived in Messina. He is the author of a prose narrative of the Trojan War entitled Historia destructionis Troiae, that was based on De excidio Trojae historia written by Dares Phrygius and Ephemeridos belli Trojani written by Dictys Cretensis.
Dante named Guido as a poet in the vernacular, and five poems by him in Italian survive.
