Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus, nicknamed Minor, i.e., the Younger, from Como 62 – circa 113, was a Roman literary figure and politician. He was the nephew and, after his father's death, also the adopted son of Pliny the Elder. In 1876, a Roman mosaic floor and many Roman coins were found in Lierna, on Lake Como. It is believed that the mosaic floor was part of the Villa Commedia.
