Pauli Orosii, historiographi clarissimi, opus prestantissimum by Paulus Orosius is a 1510 Paris edition of a foundational Christian historical text. First composed in the early 5th century, Historiae Adversus Paganos surveys global events from Creation through late antiquity. The work includes accounts of significant disasters from antiquity, such as the Great Flood, alongside commentary on ancient belief systems and their contrast with Christian doctrine.

This edition was edited by Louis Thiboust and sold by Denis Roce, complete with the extensive index.
