Traditionally, the war in Colchis, which Valerius introduces in book VI of his Argonautica, has been believed to point out the appropiation by the Flavian epicist of the martial epic indebted to Homer’s Iliad as well as to the last six books of Vergil’s Aeneid. Nevertheless, Valerius emphasizes the presence of Lucan’s Bellum Civile in his own epic by means of two similes (VI 168-70, 402-6) whose interpretation calls into question a strictly homeric and/or vergilian reading of book VI.
