1. Who Suidas may have been, or when he lived, he who inquires in vain, if no Suidas ever existed: as many writers report that the most refined man, Angelus Politianus, believed; A looking back without a doubt to these words of his, which are read in bk. XI, epist. 20 (1). "Suidas himself (if indeed this Suidas ever existed), is not an altogether bad author." But that Suidas truly existed, and that his name is not fictitious, is proven not only by the manuscripts of this Lexicon, in which the name of Suidas, or Sudas (2), appears; but also by Eustathius, who in his verbose commentary on Homer cites our Suidas several times (3). Who Suidas may have been (4), however, is difficult to say; since not only other writers, but he himself is silent about himself, and he has not revealed it in this notorious Lexicon. It seems indeed in the entry *Samothrace* to indicate his country or race, when he says: « For in the beginning that island » (that is, Samothrace) « was inhabited by Samians, from whom it receives its name. » But those words are not Suidas's own, but of an anonymous writer, from whom this passage is excerpted.
2. As regards the age of Suidas, the opinions of learned men are various, which we will recall to examination. Hugo Grotius, in ep. 110 to the French (5), thinks that Suidas lived a little after Constantine, the son of Leo (6), who began to rule in the year of Christ 912; with this added reasoning, that insofar as he himself remembers, he is the last of the emperors. B
CONCERNING THE LEXICON OF SUIDAS
C D
A in the Lexicon of Suidas, one must judge concerning his age, that he must surely be more recent, inasmuch as he lived at the very end of the eleventh century or the beginning of the twelfth, under Alexios Komnenos. For, regarding certain places (which I see have not yet been observed by name) in the entry *Gyoras*, the entry *Deptrou*, and the entry *Ichtuyes*, certain passages are adduced from Michael Psellos, who flourished under Alexios Komnenos and whose life extended until the beginning of the twelfth century. If, therefore, Suidas himself inserted those passages into his Lexicon, it must be that he lived after Psellos; but he lived before Eustathios, since he is the first to mention our author in his commentary on Homer. Now Eustathios lived a short interval after Psellos, specifically toward the end of the twelfth century and the beginning of the thirteenth. But as far as those passages of Psellos are concerned, there is no doubt that they were added to the Lexicon of Suidas by more recent hands; and I would dare to affirm this confidently regarding the first passage B which is adduced under the entry *Gyoras*, since the Paris manuscripts do not recognize it. If, therefore, the age of Suidas cannot be inferred even from this mark of time, the Reader will ask what, then, is to be determined in this matter. For our part, we judge as follows: it is indeed uncertain at what time the true Suidas, or the first author of this Lexicon, lived; yet he is without doubt more ancient than is commonly believed, since we are persuaded that many passages which smack of a more recent age were added to this Lexicon by others afterwards. This is evident even from the Paris manuscript A, which is the best and most ancient of the three codices of Suidas that are preserved in the Royal Library of Paris. For therein, many passages which are found in later manuscripts and in all modern editions either are missing entirely or were sometimes written in the margin by a more recent hand: such as the verses of the Oneirocritics, which were transferred C into this Lexicon from Astrampsychos or Nikephoros; likewise passages excerpted from Paulos Aegineta and others.
(12) Kuster at first acknowledged only the Paris manuscript that is in the library of the Most Christian King, codex 1837, fol. 184, with this title: *Summary of political [and other] matters regarding all the sciences, made for the most pious emperor, the lord Michael Doukas, by the order of his father and the emperor*. Michael Doukas, son of Constantine Doukas, was emperor from A. 1071 to 1078.
As he observes that these are not recognized by the Paris manuscripts, from this he seems to have tacitly professed at the same time that the other passages adduced from Psellos are contained in those codices, which he does not deny below in § 16 have an antiquity of at least five hundred years. And so I think the opinion of those is true who maintain that Suidas himself translated certain things from the book of Psellos into his Lexicon, and flourished under Alexios Komnenos, D as Vossius also believed, around the end of the eleventh century. Hamberger, in *Zuverl. Nachr.* IV, p. 185, with Oudin in *Comment. de SS. E.*, vol. II, p. 1454, binds the age of Suidas to the middle of the eleventh century, because he cites certain passages of Michael Psellos and Symeon Metaphrastes; although on the other hand he is praised by Eustathios of Thessalonica, yet Saxius (who cites many learned men) in *Onomast.* vol. II, p. 154, subscribes to the opinion of Pagi, who in his *Critica Baroniana* on the year 975, no. XIX, says: "At this time, it seems, Suidas flourished—for by the entry *Adam*, collecting various sums of years, he terminates his computation at the death of John Tzimiskes, emperor, who was taken away by death in this year." HARL.
3. Although we posit that Suidas is more ancient than is commonly believed, we nevertheless do not, with Lilius Gregorius Gyraldus, deem him so ancient that Strabo, who is known to have flourished under Augustus, could have known of him. The most learned man, who was lately praised, evidently supposes that our Suidas is the same as the ancient historian Suidas, of whom, besides Strabo, the scholiast of Apollonius of Rhodes and Stephanus Byzantinus make mention. His words in Dialogue III, "On the history of poets," are these: "To which this may truthfully be replied, that Suidas was an ancient writer, of whom mention is made primarily by Strabo, and by those who wrote commentaries on Apollonius of Rhodes, and by Stephanus, and others. This Suidas, therefore, among other things (for he also wrote a History), composed commentaries, as is reasonable to believe, not very large, which were later much enriched and augmented by others, to this magnitude which we see, and first obtained the name of Suidas. And a little later: "At the same time, we must also discard the distinction which some grammarians make, as if that [ancient] one were a historian, and this one a more recent grammarian." By these words he contains a twofold opinion; namely, that Suidas first composed a lexicon, which was later enriched and augmented by others; and furthermore, that Suidas was both a historian and a lexicographer. We approve of the former opinion, and many others agree with us. The latter lacks supporters, and our Suidas is rightly considered by the common consensus of the learned to be different from the ancient historian, and consequently more recent. And thus far on the age of Suidas.
4. As for the Lexicon itself, it is compiled from various authors, the list of whose names is partly contained in that catalogue which is provided by Suidas himself in the entry for Adam, [1199, C: *Suidas in Thessalica*...] ... part of the scholia, which circulate among the Tragedians and Comedians, is contained therein. The same author (p. 392) does not doubt that the work of Julius Sophista, the title of which was conceived thus, *Epitome of the glosses of Pamphilus in ninety-five books*, was transcribed by Suidas, and that he also transcribed from the Greek version of the book of Jerome *On ecclesiastical writers*, and from the little book of Hesychius of Miletus *On illustrious men*... [1200, D: *The lexicon also...*]. Thus he possessed and transcribed it. He often condensed it; I shall omit Harpocration's Lexicon, as well as the rhetorical lexicon, of which we treated above from Ruhnken's Preface to Timaeus' Lexicon, part II, we read: "An outstanding work of an ancient Atticizer, from which to us (as Valckenaer, soon to be mentioned, notes) one of the greatest of the fragments of the comedies, throughout that great lexicon, was preserved: some things from the Phrynichian *Sophistical Apparatus*, and from the lexicon of Zonaras; he transcribed a large part of the scholia on Sophocles and especially on the comedies of Aristophanes, even the *Thesmophoriazusae*, which had not yet been found in the libraries." Valckenaer observed this learnedly in his notes on Theocritus' *Adoniazusae* (p. 297, and on the scholia of Aristophanes' *Thesmophoriazusae*... and in the diatribe appended to Euripides' *Hippolytus*, p. 204). Then he continues: "But if one may confess the truth, concerning most of Suidas' excerpts from books that have reached us, the anthology of epigrams excepted, [this is the case]..."
, that our two indices appended later A show to the reader. But perhaps the reader will wonder why, in the last or third index, the Scholiast of Pindar, Theocritus, and Apollonius does not appear; since Reinesius, in his *Var. Lect.* page 479, has these words concerning Suidas: "Suidas exhausted Harpocration and the ancient scholiasts—most of all Aristophanes, Sophocles, Thucydides, Pindar, Theocritus, Apollonius—and digested them into his own armory." But the man spoke there rather incautiously. For Suidas is so far from having exhausted all the later scholiasts and enriched his own collection from them, that he has scarcely excerpted even one or another passage from them.
5. Otherwise, of the ancient scholiasts, he has compiled none more diligently than the scholiast of Aristophanes; for he has poured almost the whole of him into his Lexicon. Yet it is asked among the learned whether Suidas borrowed from the modern scholiast of Aristophanes, or rather the scholiast from Suidas; or whether the modern scholia on Aristophanes were propagated to us from some ancient codex, or were refined by Musurus or someone else from Suidas’ Lexicon. We believe that the modern scholia on Aristophanes have reached us for the most part transcribed from some ancient codex, and that the same were nevertheless interspersed with some passages by later writers B, partly from Suidas, partly from other writers. Indeed, that the things which are read in that scholiast on the *Equites*, p. 323: "The strigil, of things towards another, etc.," and likewise on the *Acharnians*, p. 396: "Sicyon, from the nominative, etc.," were inserted from Suidas (in v. Στλεγγίς and v. Σίκυον), readers of refined taste can easily perceive. For we could dismiss those things from the lexicographer without great loss to literature. But he had the books of Polybius, which now have perished for us. Whether he derived the lost books of Dio Cassius from elsewhere, I would not dare to define. He certainly had a few things of others; and the minor works of Aelian, Iamblichus, Eunapius, and Damascius, of which we have hitherto been deprived; not indeed that they are of such great moment, if anyone should so wish; yet from these unedited books, lovers of ancient literature eagerly excerpt the things for which Suidas had a craving.
6. As far as the mode is concerned, these collections were digested; in which one might not rarely desire the judgment and diligence of the compiler. For in the first place, our author, when he gathered into his Lexicon passages excerpted from various writers, was often misled by faulty codices, whence it happens that he sometimes palms off on the reader adulterated and corrupt words instead of true and genuine ones. Thus you have *Amastes* in him for *Akmaes*, *Erithmesen* for *Eremesen*, *Pepiasmenois* for *Memiasmenois*, *Talesin* for *Telesin*, *Istinos* for *Ysqinos*, *Koilidian* for *Kyloidein*, *Phremas* for *Di’ eremas*, *Deixantes* for *Diexantes*, *Alibyes* for... [interpolation in comedies].
C That this scholiast was interpolated on page 106, at the words of the Comic poet in *Plutus*, *"The tongue to the herald,"* etc., and likewise on page 486, at those words in the *Wasps*, *"The ass at the hearth,"* etc., is evident not only from the fact that Eustathius is cited there, who is certainly later than Suidas, but also from the fact that these two passages are missing in the most ancient Aldine edition. The same must be said of another passage which is read in the same scholia, page 15, where Phalaris is praised. For the old Aldine edition does not acknowledge that one either. But on this matter, a man excellent in every kind of learning, Richard Bentley, had already warned the learned in his *Dissert. de Phalaridis epist.*, page 22. It is to be noted, however, that Suidas sometimes has more than the modern scholia on Aristophanes; whence it seems it can be rightly gathered that those scholia have not reached us intact. See our author in v. *Akalephe*, v. *Akoretes*, v. *Enkekordylemenos*, v. *Mellonikian*, v. *Naxiourges*, v. *Pyrorrhages*, v. *Sibyllia*, v. *Strouthos*, v. *Titthai*, v. *Tragikoteros*, v. *Hyperakontizeis*, etc. And these things, in passing, concerning the scholiast of Aristophanes. D
A The Libyans: *Hemimallones* for *Haimimallones*; *thesmotokon* for *esmotokon*; *Hebos* for *Hybos*; *Anarpastoi* for *Anorgiastoi*; *dapsato* for *olopsato*; *lotos* for *edetys*; *eucheimonos* for *leucheimonos*; *paiôle* for *apaiôle*; *paiolêma* for *apaiolêma*; *ozôta* for *oxôta*; *ysepiros* for *osypiros*; *phoonta* for *aphoonta*; *phylokrinei* for *philokrinei*; and other things. Sometimes, however, the reading of Suidas is better than that which our present-day codices exhibit. For example, in Aristophanes, *Thesmophoriazusae*, p. 811, it is read today: *Tenioisi kai Skirois*: where the codex of Suidas formerly had *Stenioisi* for *Tenioisi*; which reading we prove to be true in the notes on the word *Stênia*. For the conjecture of Bisetus, who thought that *threisioisi* should be substituted there, is deservedly to be rejected. In the same comic poet, in the *Thesmophoriazusae*, p. 777, the verse is read here: *Tas symphoras gar ouchi tois stenasmasi*. The last word there is corrupt; in its place Suidas, in his own series, correctly has *technasmasi*. In the play *Ecclesiazusae*, this verse occurs: *He graus anestekuia para ton nekron*. The meter is obviously limping; which you may restore in its entirety from Suidas in v. *pleionon* thus: *He graus anestekuia para ton pleionon*. For a scholium has today wrongly occupied the place of the genuine word in the comic poet. In the play *Thesmophoriazusae*, p. 794, among other things, these are also read: *Leon, leon soi gegonen, aut' aigma syn*. Great Scaliger, when he saw that the measure did not fit this verse, thought it should be rewritten thus: *Leon, leon soi gegonen, aut' eigmi son*. But in vain. For we prove in the notes on that passage that from Suidas, in v. *Leon*, *exagma* should be substituted for *aigma*. In the *Anthologia*, lib. III, cap. 14, p. 343, an epigram on Protesilaus is read, a part of which is this hexameter: *Dendrea dysmimêta, kai ên pote teichos idôsi*. As for this *dysmimêta*, it is manifest that it is adverse to the sense; in its place Brodaeus thought *dysmenêta* should be substituted; and Obsopoeus, *dysmeilikta*. But both wandered from the mark. For we note in our remarks on that passage that in Suidas, under v. *dysmimêta*, it should be *dysmeleta*. Among other things, these are also read in Josephus, lib. 1 *De bello Jud.*, p. 739: *hê oikia hoplitôn ektato*. The last word there lies in error; in its place, from Suidas v. *Nênakto*, it should be *nenakto*; the sense manifestly urges this. The diligent reader will be able to collect more examples of this kind from our notes. For we have proposed these things here only as specimens.
Furthermore, it must be observed that Suidas is accustomed to recount the names of men in a continuous series, and sometimes to refer them to one head: from which it happens that matters pertaining to different people appear to be attributed to one, and everything is thrown into confusion in the histories, unless you distinguish the narratives and carefully note to whom each entry is to be referred. You have examples in v. *Eumenes*, v. *Heron*, v. *Severos*, and elsewhere.
7. Sometimes, however (which is a greater sin), our grammarian mixes up the affairs of men who are entirely different, and who do not even have a name in common, and refers historical excerpts to an entirely different head; of whose *ablepsias* (blindness) I shall produce a few examples here. In v. *Maximos*, what is read from the beginning up to the words *epibouleuôn* is to be understood regarding the emperor Maximinus Thrax. But those things which follow thereafter, without any note of distinction, are subject to Galerius Maximianus, as is apparent from Euseb. *Hist. Eccles.*, lib. VIII, cap. 14 and 16. In v. *Alyattês*, the words *tôn Lydôn basileus* — *adelphên êschynen*, cited from Niccolò Damascenus in *Collectaneis Constantini* (edited by Valesius, p. 453), whence that passage is taken, are said of Sadyattes, the father of Alyattes: our author wrongly refers them to Alyattes. In v. *Nikon*, our grammarian, through supine negligence, B C D
A has received into the text without judgment or discernment [passages] which are taken from the margin. No one, unless he be a complete stranger to this Lexicon, will deny that there are many places in Suidas which have crept from the margin into the text, and which manifestly betray the ignorance of the copyists. Let the reader at least look at what we have noted at v. *Agroiōtēs*, v. *Anatheinai*, v. *Aristogeitōn*, [v.] *Kyd*, v. *Eillein*, v. *Nannos*, v. *Hypnomachō*.
9. Although these faults B (27) are to be attributed partly to Suidas himself, partly to copyists and later compilers, the book is nevertheless by far most useful (28), and a thesaurus which—with the incomparable Reinesius—one may deservedly call a storehouse of all manner of erudition. The history of the poets, orators, historians, etc., contained within it alone is worth its weight in gold, and the literary republic could not be deprived of it without irreparable loss. I pass over so many and such splendid fragments of ancient writers, lost today, which are preserved for us in this Lexicon C and which gain for it no small value. [Hemsterhusius, on the scholia to Aristophanes’ *Plutus*, p. 324, and Valckenarius, on Theocritus’ *Adoniazousai*, p. 298, judge the same. HARL.]
10. The *Collectanea* of Suidas appeared first at Milan (29), A.D. 1499, in Greek only; in which edition some places are missing. D That book is, indeed, very rare, and much is to be attributed to it. Certainly, very many excellent things, worthy of being known, would be hidden from us in the same darknesses of antiquity as countless other things, were we to lack this work of Suidas.
The first edition, which appeared at Milan (not Rome, as Michael Neander, in the *Notitia auctorum* prefixed to the Gnomology of Stobaeus, p. 68, opined after Gesner), on large and clean paper, with elegant type, is owed to Demetrius Chalcondyles, a most learned Greek, and to Joannes Maria Catanæus, who prefixed the Latin preface—the teacher—and to Joannes Bisolus and Benedictus Mangius of Carpi, who provided the labor of the press and the expenses along with him. This is the Catanæan Suidas, which is mentioned in the secret epistles of C.S. Schurtzfleisch, p. 5. Chalcondyles, in the Greek preface he prefixed, testifies that he used several manuscript codices, and in correcting the work, spared no effort: however, when he could not correct some things, he left them as he found them, and some he added, having taken them from elsewhere.
"The one who has performed the correction of this book is Demetrius Chalcondyles, who, having made use of more than one copy, and finding in all of them no small number of errors—the majority of which were the same in all—labored much and, having arranged them, corrected them. There were some, however, which he was not able to correct with the proper emendation, but he was careful to preserve the interpretation of the word; the cited passage itself, however, which was introduced for the sake of clarity but was corrupt, he left as it was. Yet he also added some words that were altogether absent from Suidas, having collected them from elsewhere, so that those seeking their meaning might have them more easily and readily available from this source, and he also made it his concern to explain some words that were uninterpreted where it was possible. He adds furthermore that the book of Suidas was once so rare and precious in Greece and Italy that he who possessed it would boast of it as if it were a notable treasury and the horn of Amalthea that he possessed."
In its title there appears a Greek dialogue between a bookseller and a reader
philomathoues,
in which the book is commended and indicated as being offered for sale for three gold pieces. "How much is the price?" "Three gold pieces." "Take it then, and give me the book." Regarding Demetrius Chalcondyla, who died in the year 1510 at over eighty years of age, beyond what Jovius says in his Eulogies, it will be helpful to consult the *Quaesita* through the letters of Janus Parrhasius (whose daughter had married Demetrius), page 45, 144, 146; Alcyonius [II] *De exsilio* page 247; Lambecius VI, page 277; Vossius *De arte grammatica*, page 15; Varillasius, book VI of the *Anecdoton Florentin.*; Bullartius, Vol. I of the Academy of Sciences, page 28. [See the books of Hody and Boerner, cited several times above; Freytag, *Appar. litter.* III, page 147 seqq.], etc. Antonius Motta, an instructor of Demetrius, prefixed this epigram to this Lexicon of Suidas:Demetrius, the world owes you eternal honors, For the worthy and noble work you bring forth. Motta owes more, to whom so great a glory Results from his dear pupil, as much as is given under your guidance.
Also this other one, in which he claims greater honor from the Milan edition of Suidas than the one he promises to those places which brought forth Hesiod, Homer, and Pindar, the poets, into the light:
Phocis was once celebrated for learned Poets, From whom Ascra drew a new melody from its depths. Next to this is Helicon, perhaps a competitor to the living one, In which Smyrna expressed the noble sage so well. The Dircean swan is said to have flown through the Cadmean citadels And to have resounded with an immense sound. A more worthy glory of Suidas emerges than from the Insubrian city, Into whose lap all of Greece has fallen. — Fabr.
Bandinus in *Annalibus Juntarum typogr.* I, page 77: "I saw," he says, "the Lexicon of Suidas printed in Greek at Milan at the expense and by the skill of Demetrius Chalcondyla in the year 1499, folio, in which at the foot of the first page it is read: *Monasterii Angelorum Petrus Candidus*; who illustrated this old edition with notes." [HARL.]
A ... of Suidas was once so rare ... [the text continues through the column entries] ...
B Theodosius Junior's time similarly ... [This list of Suidas's sources follows in the Greek/Latin original].
C ... and so on. Editio Aldina has in place of a preface a prefixed notice by Aldus regarding the singular method which the writer here observes in the order of the series of letters, which is then repeated also in the Basle edition and those of Portus and Kuster.
D ... note referring to the Basle edition of 1564, which Hieronymus Wolfius edited ... [a description of the work and its reception follows]. If we are to believe the most excellent Vossius, lib. II of his *De hist. Graecis*, c. 26, page 302, it was translated into Latin long before Wolfius by Robert Grosseteste, or Capito, the Bishop of Lincoln, who died in the year of Christ 1253. But although Joannes Balaeus, *Cent.* IV, c. 18, page 306, notes this among the writings of Robert, and records it as having been translated into Suidas by him, this does not seem to be understood except as the apocryphal narrative which exists in Suidas under *Iesous*, and from...
A fragments more brief), he published at Basel without the Greek text. This version, having been revised by Wolf himself, was afterwards reprinted in 1581. It is no wonder, however, that Wolf was less successful, since, uninstructed by any manuscript codices, he followed the text of Suidas as it was at that time, which was corrupt, in his version. Finally, Aemilius Portus, son of Franciscus, formerly a professor of the Greek language at the Academy of Heidelberg, published at Geneva in 1619, in two folio volumes, Suidas with a new Latin version, or rather a paraphrase, and notes. (35) Thus far Kuster.
There were many learned men who, either incidentally and as if through a lattice, or by set purpose, sustained the effort to apply a healing hand to the disjointed and corrupt passages of Suidas, or to explain those that were obscure in various ways. The observations and strictures of Bosius, Schweighäuser, and others, already mentioned above, or cited by me in the Introduction to the History of Greek Literature, Vol. II, 1, p. 507 sq., I shall pass over; they come into the account here under the learned men. Observations on Suidas, in Miscellanea observationes, Vol. I, pp. 314–316. Observations of the same author on Strabo, Diodorus, Anacreon, Suidas, ibid. Vol. II, Tom. I, pp. 8–13; Gratiani de S. Bavone (that is, Joan. Alberti), on Suidas, B observation, ibid. Vol. II, Tom. I, pp. 126–134. Of the same author in certain places of Suidas, observations therein, Vol. IX, pp. 143–156, some of which are either repeated or augmented with new ones in the same Alberti’s *Miscellanea critica*, cited above, pp. 267–294. The same, in *Observationes philologicae* on the sacred books of the New Testament, Leyden, 1725, 8vo, attempted this several times, and even on p. 313 defends Suidas. How often and in almost infinite places Suidas is amended or explained in the notes to Hesychius’ Lexicon, you will see at the end, Tom. II, edited by Alberti in the index of authors, emended works, etc., under *Suidas*, to which also, by Ruhnken in his notes to Timaeus’ Platonic Lexicon, light is poured on almost every page.
Already long before, Salmasius, in *Exercitationes Plinianae*, pp. 472, 761, 762, 889, amended, and much more often explained and illustrated, passages of Suidas. I. C. G. Ernesti, V. C., *Letter on the use of Suidas the lexicographer for the criticism and interpretation of the sacred books*, Leipzig, 1785, 8vo. The same, but more complete, has been reprinted in the learned and scholarly book: *Suidae et Phavorini glossae sacrae, Graece cum spicilegio glossarum sacrarum Hesychii et Etym. M. congessit, emendavit et nobis illustravit Jo. Chr. Gottlieb Ernesti, prof. philos. P. E. Acc. dissertatiuncula de glossis sacris Suidae et Phavorini*, Leipzig, 1786, May 8. However, when the illustrious man writes in Dissertation § II that it is certain that Suidas and Phavorinus, "whatever glosses they have," even with labor, which, without the help of our industry, cannot be understood at all. But on page 136 to the same Bloccius: "My Suidas will not be made public before a year or more elapses before it comes into the hands of men." The remark about Wolf’s Suidas seems to be in a letter of Junius to Guil. Lindanus, p. 267: "I fear that for Wolf his labor will be little glorious, unless he comes instructed with the resources which, besides me, I do not know if anyone else has; let him for a little while enjoy the small glory sought in that *mustaceum*." FABR.
Alberti in a letter to our Fabricius, written at Haarlem, the eighth day before the Kalends of May 1733, (Reimarus in the *Commentary on the life and writings of Jo. A. Fabricius*, p. 215): "One thing," he says, "I add, that I have acquired two remarkable treasures: namely, a copy of Nonnus’ *Dionysiaca* (1569) with very rich, unpublished, handwritten notes by Dan. Heinsius, and a most desired and little-known copy of Suidas (ed. Basel, 1544) to which Adrianus Junius had added his own C emendations and the locations of the authors: whose book (our friend) and Albertus Verlanius, Hornanus, grandson of Adrianus Junius by his daughter, in the dedication of the poems of Adrianus Junius, 1598, 8vo. But since it was not permitted to purchase that very copy, I copied all of Junius’s notes into my own codex, and saved them from destruction." HARL.
Regarding the plan of the great Pearson, Mericus Casaubon writes in his notes on Hierocles, published at London in 1655, p. 181: "Joannes Pearson, a man most learned in both Greek letters and every kind of book, who, from the excellent editions of Hesychius and Suidas, which he has long been preparing, if life allows, will one day be recognized by the learned as most eminent as he truly is." Suidas, annotated here and there by Pearson’s hand, is preserved at Cambridge, whose handwritten notes Kuster used and cites here and there. But a false rumor about Beveridge came to Schurtzfleisch, who, in *Epistolae arcanae* Vol. I, p. 5, wrote in 1679: "Beveridge’s Suidas will soon come into our hands, which a learned and hardworking man among the English is treating with great diligence." p. 283 sqq. HARL.
A Hesychio, whom they were compiling," or other glossaries now unknown to us, or whether he excerpted them from his own study of the commentaries and scholia of ancient writers; what other learned men judge concerning the sacred Hesychian glosses, we have already seen in the chapter on Hesychius; that Suidas, however, drew mostly from other sources, for the most part not unknown today, we have likewise noted in this chapter. We have already praised above the distinguished Schulze’s specimen of *Miscellaneous Observations* on Suidas. But the learned man pursues many places of Suidas from "Αατος up to Ἐφραθᾶ, and these he illustrates now with critical skill, now he opens the sources from which Suidas drew, and now he explains the matters and words after the manner of the grammarians. Brucker and Fabricius undertook to amend the place in Suidas regarding Πτεροφόρος, etc., in their mutual correspondence, provided as an appendix to Reimar's *De Vita Fabricii*, p. 225 sq. Suidas was occasionally amended by Taylor in his *Lectiones Lysiacae*, in the preface to his edition of Lysias, London 1739, 4, ch. 3. Whether Jo. Taylor's appendix of notes to the Lexicon of Suidas (see Bruggemann, *View of the English Editions, etc.*, p. 448) ever saw the light, I for one do not know. Villoison, in *Anecdota Graeca* II, p. 31, n. 1, and p. 163, note, illustrates and amends two places in Suidas. But it would be an endless task to collect and note everything that Hemsterhuis, Valckenaer, Markland, Pierson, Koen, the interpreters of Thomas Magister, and many other men learned in Greek have contributed here and there in notes on the classical authors or elsewhere in books of *Observations*, *Emendations*, etc., to illustrate and correct Suidas. It suffices to indicate a few works in which the Lexicon of Suidas is treated with devotion and at length. Ernesti the younger, in his *Commentary on the Commentaries of Procopius of Caesarea*, etc., p. 4, noted that Olearius had inscribed many learned observations in his own copy. Later, through the care of that most kindly man, these were brought forth from the shadows in a book entitled: *Jo. Aug. Ernesti Observationes philologicae criticae in Aristophanis Nubes et Flavii Josephi Antiquitates Judaicas. Accesserunt Godofredi Olearii notae ad Suidam.* Leipzig 1795, May 8. Yet the notes on Suidas, which are undeservedly attributed to Olearius, and especially concern the matters and people of whom there is speech in Suidas, have Reinesius as their true parent. For this most learned and skillful man B of Suidas, as edited by Emilio Porto, in a copy which is still preserved in the public library at Citza, had inscribed many things by which he had amended the Latin translation or the text itself, especially according to the Milan edition; often by conjecture, or by comparison with the authors from whom Suidas drew his glosses, he had supplied gaps, or restored the true reading, or more often had explained proper names and their force and power or history, or added to them with new material. Olearius had transferred these Reinesian observations into his own copy: yet he neglected many of Reinesius’s acute emendations and learned expositions, while on the contrary he added certain of his own, and those sometimes quite light; this, which was later D and clearly revealed by the distinguished Muller, rector at Citza, in his *Program on Suidas, with observations by Reinesius*, Citza and Leipzig 1796, 8. The same man taught that Kuster had silently used these Reinesian observations.
In the first place, notable are the emendations to Suidas by Jo. Toup, in which very many places are both explained and emended, London 1760-1767, vol. III, 8. The same author’s *Critical Epistle to William, Bishop of Gloucester*, London 1767, 8. The same author’s most recent efforts, i.e., an appendix of notes and emendations to Suidas, etc., ibid., 1775, 8. All of which were first reprinted in this author's *Jo. Toup. Opuscula critica*, Leipzig 1780 and 1781, vol. II, 8. Then, with the significant addition of new animadversions and emendations on Suidas, and more abundant ones on Hesychius, and on Pollux and Harpocration fewer ones, and with the appendix of Tyrwhitt and other distinguished men’s notes C in Toup's emendations, after the death of the author, they were published again in England with a preface by Thomas Burghess, under the title: *Emendationes in Suidam et Hesychium et alios lexicographos Graecos*. Written by Jo. Toup, prebendary of Exeter Cathedral and rector of the church of St. Martin with the chapel of Loo in the county of Cornwall. At Oxford, at the Clarendon Press, 790, 4 vols., IV. Toup was indeed a critic, but also immoderate and harsh, and not rarely indifferent towards others. Whether he was aided by the works of Pearson and Adr. Junius, and if, as they say, he plowed with another man’s heifer, as Eckard in the *Uebersicht der Oerter — und Grundsalze zur Geschichte der Bibliotheken*, p. 115, suspects, I for one do not know and would hardly believe. He was also ingenious, but a somewhat bold critic.
Gilbert Wakefield, in *Silva critica, sive in auctores sacros profanosque commentario philologico*, Cambridge 1789-1795, 8, V parts, who in all five parts scattered critical observations on Suidas, sometimes sparingly, sometimes with a more liberal hand. The distinguished Hoepfner, co-rector of the Gymnasium of Eisleben, a man deservedly highly esteemed (who himself was at one time planning a new edition of the Lexicon, but then abandoned the plan), undertook labor most excellent and useful for a future editor of Suidas, and showed others the way, by which, from other scholia and glossaries, in equal manner and counsel, Suidas might be illustrated and emended; he edited: *Glossarum Suidae e Sophocle ejusque schol. depromptarum specimen I accuratius collegit, emendavit, illustravit I. G. C. Hoepfner in: Magazin für Schullehrer, herausgegeben von G. A. Ruperti und H. Schilchthorst*, vol. I, part 1, p. 250, 264. *Specimen II* ibid. part 11, p. 452-454. *Specimen III* in the *Magazin für Philologen* of the same editors, vol. I, p. 146-154. From these it becomes clear how great a field lies open to him who would exercise the powers of his talent and erudition in restoring Suidas. HARL. [After the edition given by Ludolph Kuster in the year 1705, at Cambridge, Lexicon]
INDEX PREFACED TO THE LEXICON OF SUIDAS
The present book is indeed by Suidas, but the men who composed it were learned: these are their names:
BEUDEMUS, rhetor, on diction in alphabetical order. HELLADIUS, in the time of Theodosius the Younger, similarly. EUGENIUS from Augustopolis in Phrygia, on miscellaneous diction, in alphabetical order.
C I have said that this book, which is prefaced to the Lexicon of Suidas, exists in libraries; Kuster thinks it is spurious and compiled and stitched together unskillfully from other lexicons by some more recent Greek. Gaddius is mistaken, who (vol. I, p. 173) thinks this Eudemus is the same as Eudemus the Rhodian, a philosopher, a disciple of Aristotle, about whom I spoke in book II, chapter 8 [vol. III, p. 292, sq.], where I also mentioned Eudemus the Cyprian, whom Aristotle celebrated after his death in the dialogue *On the Soul*, and also the third Eudemus, a contemporary of Galen, a Peripatetic. Eudemus of Pergamum was also different, of whom Plutarch writes in the *Life of the Gracchi*, p. 830. Regarding other Eudemuses, one should consult Jonsius, book I, chapter 15. However, whom the same author calls Eudemus the orator of the Megalopolitans, the teacher of Philopoemen, he is not *Eudemus* in the codices of Plutarch, p. 356, but *Ecdemus*, a disciple of Arcesilaus the Academic, the same who is called *Ecdelus* in the same author in the *Life of Aratus*, pp. 1028–1030. — HARL.
D This is Helladius the Alexandrian, of whose lexicon Photius speaks in codex CXLV, who mentions him again in codex CLVIII. Suidas in *Helladius* refers to the title of the work: *The use of various diction in alphabetical order*. [See above in the catalogue of grammarians regarding this man and Helladius of Besantinous.] This is not another Helladius, the grammarian, whose mention occurs in Socrates, *History*, book V, chapter 16. But there is another Helladius, of Besantinous, about whom see the notes on Photius' codex CCLXXIX. This man is called Besantinous from his fatherland, a town of Egypt in the Thebaid, which received its name from Antinoopolis of Hadrian and the god Besa, whose oracle is attested to have been there by Ammianus Marcellinus, book XIX, chapter 12. See there the note by H. Valesius, Casaubon on Spartianus' *Hadrian*, chapter 14, and Claud. Nicaeus on the pantheon coin of Hadrian, p. 53. Mention of a pantomime Helladius is in the *Chronicon of Malalas*, vol. II, p. 98.
As Suidas attests in *Eugenius*, where he commemorates his other writings. Hermolaus in his *Epitome of Ethnika* of Stephanus of Byzantium, under *Anactorium*: "Eugenius, who before us adorned the things in the imperial city (in the royal city, not, as Tho. Pinedo suggests, in the royal court, or, as Berkelius, in the royal school) in a collection of diction." Another Eugenius was the philosopher, father of Themistius the philosopher and rhetor, about whom see volume VIII, book V, c. 18 [old ed.]; another Eugenius, about whom Photius, codex XXIII. The entries for "miscellaneous diction" are missing in the Madrid codex. HARL.

OF WHOM SUIDAS PROVIDES KNOWLEDGE, IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER, MORE FULLY AND COMPLETELY.—
A
ABARIS, a Scythian, son of Seuthes, wrote Scythian oracles, the Wedding of the Hebrus River, purifications, and a theogony, and the coming of Apollo to the Hyperboreans, in poem form. ABAS, a sophist, historical commentaries, rhetorical art. ABRON, a Phrygian or Rhodian, a grammarian, a disciple of Tryphon, a freedman, a sophist, or one who taught rhetoric at Rome C. ACACIUS, patriarch of Constantinople. ACACIUS, an equal of Libanius and the Emperor Julian, whose judgments he criticized alongside the Tuscan Phrygian, a distinguished rhetorician.
(41-42) This Zosimus, of Gaza or Ascalon in Syria, was a sophist, famous in the times of the same Anastasius, as Suidas attests under the entry for Zosimus. Regarding him, as with other Zosimuses, it has been said in Vol. VI, p. 733, and see Valckenaer, in the same place, p. 294, etc. Harl. (43) This Cæcilius, a Calantian of Sicily, taught in Rome in the times of Augustus, as Suidas attests under the entry for Hermagoras. You must see the same under Cæcilius, and what learned men note regarding his writings in Longinus [in the old edition]. Harl. (47) Kuster accepted this as if he had compiled 91 books, which is not credible; but Julius had contracted the 95 books of Pamphylus, or, as below, 95. This Julius is uncertain, whether he was different from Julian, a sophist, a teacher, whose lexicon on rhetoricians Photius mentions in codex CL. Fabr. Concerning the glosses of Pamphylus and others, Valckenaer is extensive in his notes to Theocritus, Adonis, p. 293, etc. Harl. D (48) This is Minucius Pacatus, a grammarian, who, with a Greek name, was also known as Pacatus Irenæus, and whose History Socrates praises in book III, ch. 7. Concerning him [page 170 in this volume and above in the grammatical catalogue] Pacatus in the Madrid codex, which omits "in alphabetical order." Harl. (49) Glosses of Pamphylus, the Alexandrian grammarian, are cited by Athenæus, the author of the Etymologicum, Eustathius, etc. Other writings of his are mentioned by Suidas under the entry for Pamphylus. The "five" are missing in the codex. Matrit. Harl. (50) Valerius Pollio, of Alexandria, father of Diodorus the philosopher, famous in the time of Hadrian, whose Lexicon Photius mentions in codex CXLIX. Concerning the writer Pollio, Suidas and, among more recent writers, Jonsius III, 7, p. 246, etc. Harl.

Ammonianus, a grammarian, a relative of Syrianus the philosopher, "loved the art trained in the interpretation of poets and the correction of the Greek language, and he delighted in diligence occupied with the emendation of the poets and of Greek dictionaries." There was an Ammonianus to whom it happened to possess a slave (by this name) who was a disciple of wisdom. Ammonius Saccas, an Alexandrian philosopher, from a Christian became a pagan, according to Porphyry.

Andocides, an Athenian, son of Leogoras, one of the orators, tracing his lineage to Telemachus, Ulysses' son, and Nausicaa, as Hellanicus relates.

Antimachus, a Heliopolitan from Egypt, who wrote the *Kosmopoian* in 3780 heroic verses.
Antimachus, a lyric poet, called *sprax*, just as (52) a certain Olympic victor, because he would sprinkle his disciples with minute droplets while lecturing.

Antiphon, an Athenian, *teratoskopos*, a forecaster of prodigies, an epic poet and sophist: called *logomageiros*, as if you would say a "kitchen-cook of words." I think he is the same person whom Suidas, a little later, calls *oneirokrites*, and says that he wrote *peri kriseos oneiron*, on the judgment of dreams.
Antiphon, son of Sophilus, an Athenian, of the deme of Rhamnus, surnamed Nestor; he excelled after Gorgias in the forensic style of speaking; a teacher of Thucydides. [See Küster's notes.]

[53] Cydimachus or Lysimachus, son of Aristogiton, son of Scydimus, a sycophant, is distinguished; and concerning each one is treated separately. Indeed, the former is said to have spoken against Hyperides, and the latter also to have pursued Hyperides for the aforementioned decree, though in vain. Yet whether they were truly distinct, and each wrote against Hyperides, or rather with Taylor, who in a note to Demosthenes' orations, Vol. III (where, on p. 509 seq., he treats of Aristogiton more fully, and on p. 510 cites passages of Suidas), does not distinguish them nor judge that they differ (and Suidas is not immune from the confusion of things and men, see above, to sect. 7, note), I would not dare to decide. The latter, however, seems more likely to me. Cf. supra to Vol. II, p. 858, note, and Vol. III, p. 51 seq. HARL.

Learned and no less outstanding in piety and prudence, he devoted much effort to the books of the ancients, spending sleepless nights in their reading; hence, he was not at all intimidated by the discourses of philosophers and sophists, as if they were something new.

He, when Nearches, a tragic poet, killed Alexander, having been enclosed in a cage of iron, because he was persuaded by him that the Athenians should be urged to call [Alexander] lord, or because he had plotted against the king.

For Carcinus compels Orestes to acknowledge his mother, [and] as if compelled by the same, he is led to respond in obscure words. [Suidas separated them, and made two different Carcinuses.]

From Agathias.

He wrote more than 700 philosophical, historical, and grammatical books. Suidas provides certain sophisms of Chrysippus from Laertius. B To Chrysogonus the confessor, two letters of Anastasia the martyr, wishing to be liberated by Publius, her husband, an idolater, along with the replies of Chrysogonus, Suidas attributes in their entirety; concerning which, see *Menagiana* vol. 4, page 208, Amsterdam edition.

He wrote much.
Clearchus, of Soli, wrote various things.
Clearchus, of Pontus, set out for Athens for the sake of listening to Plato. But he saw [him] in his sleep, saying to him, "Depart from the Academy and leave philosophy, which it is not right for you to enjoy," and glaring at him with a hostile expression. Hence he returned to his homeland, then came to Mithridates, and finally, having become a tyrant of the Heracleotes, he ruled cruelly, dressing himself in garments such as are seen on the images of the gods, and insolently calling his son *Keraunos* ("Thunderbolt"). He was killed by Chion, Leonides, and Antitheus, disciples of the philosopher Plato.

Cornelius, a bishop who withdrew from the communion of Novatus.
Cornutus (58). There were two Roman historians: Titus Livius, whose name is famous and illustrious, and Cornutus.

*Cycliodidaskalos*. A master of cyclic choruses. Lasus of Hermione first established cyclic choruses.
They called the "song-twisters" of cyclic choruses C corruptors of music and of that difficult mode of modulation which Phrynis introduced, following the sophist dithyrambic poets and cyclic chorus masters, such as Cinesias, Cleomenes, and Philoxenus. But because their writings do not fall under a single harmony, they have many turns, which musicians call strophes, antistrophes, and epodes. Wherefore choruses were also established in tragedies.
*Kynigion*, a place in Constantinople where certain statues were placed, one of which, not very tall but very wide and thick, was pointed out to the reader Theodorus, at which the *chartularius* Himerius asked who had erected the Cynesium? Then he replied: Maximinus erected it, but Aristides measured it. At which word, the statue fell from on high and crushed Himerius. A certain Joannes, a philosopher, said he had found written that it would come to pass that a famous man would be crushed by that statue.

A *Cyrbes*, triangular tablets upon which laws regarding sacred and civil matters and the punishments for evildoers were inscribed; *axones*, square tablets upon which laws regarding private matters, etc., were inscribed. Asclepiades, however, records that they were so named after a certain Cyrbis, who had reduced the manner and method of sacrifices to certain laws, as the author Phanias of Eresus writes (thus the reading). Or, the name was received from the Corybantes. For Apollodorus testifies that the cyrbes were their invention.

On both sides there were iron clasps, so that they could be moved and turned by readers, etc.

*Cyrus*, of Panopolis, a poet, was created praetorian prefect and urban prefect by Theodosius the Younger, and was a consular and patrician. For Eudocia, the wife of Theodosius, being a lover of poetry, held Cyrus in the highest esteem; when she withdrew from the court and, having departed for the East, was sojourning in Jerusalem, Cyrus, entrapped by the plots of his enemies, was relegated to Cotyaeum, a city of Phrygia, to preside over sacred affairs there, and he prolonged his life until the Emperor Leo. Consult Reinesius, *Var. Lect.*, book III, p. 561, and Kuster on Suidas II, p. 402, note 10.

*Damis*, a man not unlearned, dwelling in old Nineveh. This man, while with Apollonius (of Tyana) the philosopher, described his travels, in which he writes that he was also his companion: likewise his maxims, conversations, and predictions. His diction, like that of the Assyrians, is mediocre: for it lacked the elegance of Greek phrasing, being fashioned among the Barbarians, etc.
*Damocritus*, a historian, wrote two books of *Tactics*. The same man wrote about the Jews, in which work he claims they worship an ass's head, and that every seventh year they capture a stranger, sacrifice him, and kill him, cutting his flesh into small, minute pieces.
*Damophilus*, a philosopher and sophist (Bithynian), a student of Julian, who was consul under the Emperor Marcus.

*Damostratus*, a historian. He wrote *Halieutics* in twenty books. Also *On Divination by Water*, and other miscellanea of a historical nature.
*Damoxenus*, of Athens, a comic poet. Excerpts from his *Comrades* and *Self-Punisher* are praised by Athenaeus.
*Daphidas*, of Telmissus, a grammarian, argues that Homer's poetry is a fabrication, denying that the Athenians took part in the expedition to Ilium. He asked the Pythia, in mockery, whether he would find his horse? An answer having been given, he quickly spread the word that he had neither had nor lost a horse. But as he returned, King Attalus had him thrown from a place which was called "the Horse," etc.
*Datis*, the Persian, when he tried to speak Greek, said *chairo* (rejoice) as *choiromai* (I am a pig), joining words: "I do not merely rejoice, I am a pig." Hence the name Datis was received (because of the solecism).
*Decius*, Emperor of the Romans, successor to Philip, condemned Christians to death by edict, and compelled them to adore the gods.
D *Delian Swimmer*. Regarding this, when Socrates was asked about the book of Heraclitus, he said that one must be a Delian swimmer, in order not to be submerged in it. He is written of by others as the Muse, by others as concerning nature: with Diodotus, "as an accurate steering-oar according to the rule of life," a rationale for directing life according to a norm; by others "a regulation of morals" or "an adornment of ways of one of the..."
A most knowledgeable, and he translated the commentaries of Botrys and Philænides, which excel in their obscenity.
Demades, son of Demeas, a sailor—he emerged from being a shipwright and a sailor to engage in state affairs, and he spoke against Demosthenes, who was pleading the cause of the Olynthians; and he restored Euthycrate the Olynthian, who had been marked with infamy by the Athenians, through his own decree. The magistrates, moreover, demanded that he render accounts of his conduct, but fearing this, he withdrew from the city, and he said: "You are not my masters" (O Athenians). He wrote to Philip, and he also sent his son to him. He also wrote a decree that the Greeks should obey Philip. The same man was captured in the battle of Chæronea. He was released, however, to perform his duty regarding the captives whom Philip had sent. Twice he was accused of having made decrees contrary to the laws. He also managed the republic under Alexander. [Suidas relates more in two, so to speak, accounts concerning the writings of Demades and pursues the history of Demades.]
Demades, the Laciad, an Athenian orator, born of a female flute-player and the elder Demades, the demagogue, was chosen as successor, and he was the father of the orator Demeas; he perished in the Amphotan lake, into which he had been cast by Antipater, the father of Cassander and successor of Alexander. [Cf. supra, vol. II, page 868 sqq.]
Demetrius, son of Phanostratus, the Phalerian (from Phalerum, a port of Attica, which was before Phanus), a Peripatetic philosopher, who wrote on philosophical, historical, rhetorical, and political subjects, as well as on poets. He heard Theophrastus and was a popular orator at Athens. On account of the elegance of his form in his youth, he was called Lampeto and Charitoblepharus, and because of his love for Cleon, he was ill-spoken of. Later, he advanced to great power and glory, but those who were jealous undermined him with their arts and wiles. Driven from Athens, he came to Egypt, and living with Ptolemy Soter, he perished from the bite of an asp and was buried in the prefecture of Busiris near Diospolis, in the marshes. B
Demetrius, nicknamed Ixion, a grammarian from Adramyttium, lived at Pergamum in the time of Augustus; he wrote on words ending in *mi*, on pronouns, and on the parts of speech. Among his writings are a commentary on Homer and on Hesiod. He was called Ixion because he was caught in theft while attempting to steal the golden plates from the statue of Juno Alexandrina; or because he had taken the *Ixion*, a play by Euripides; or because he had contended with his master Aristarchus, being ungrateful, like Ixion towards the gods who had favored him with benefits.
Democedes, son of Calliphont, who was a priest of Æsculapius at Cnidos, a Crotoniate, practiced the medical art at Ægina and took a wife. He treated the tyrant Polycrates for a stipulated wage of two talents. He also treated Darius and his wife, Atossa, through whom he obtained permission to return to Greece, etc. (From Herodotus.) He wrote a medical book, *Iatrikon*.
Demochares, a nephew of Demosthenes on his sister’s side, was adorned with high office and other honors by the Athenians, according to Polybius; Timæus, however, when he reports that he was addicted to lust and... C
Democritus, son of Hegesistratus or Athenocritus or Damasippus, lived during the time that Socrates did, around the 77th or 80th Olympiad. An Abderite, a Thracian, a philosopher and disciple, as some report, of Anaxagoras and Leucippus; indeed, as others write, of the Magi and Chaldeans in Persia. For he visited the Persians, the Indians, and the Egyptians, and learned the wisdom of each. Then, having returned home, he lived with his brothers Herodotus and Damastes. He also presided over the republic of the Abderites, an honor held for his wisdom. His illustrious disciple was Metrodorus of Chios, whose own auditors were Anaxarchus and the physician Hippocrates. He is also nicknamed *Sophia* (Wisdom) and *Gelastinos* (the laugher), because he was wont to laugh at the empty pursuits of men. His genuine books are two: *Megas Diacosmos* (The Great World-Order) and *Peri physeos cosmou* (On the Nature of the World). He also wrote *Letters*. He did not travel to Athens, etc., according to Laertius. Near the time of his death, around the festival of the Thesmophoria, fearing that his sister would be prevented from celebrating the festival on his account by grief, he prolonged his life until the festival by placing warm loaves of bread to his nostrils.
Demodocus, a singer.
Demophilus, bishop of Constantinople, carrying much mud and filth in his sermons like a rapid and wandering torrent, etc., from Philostorgius.
Demosthenes, an Athenian, son of Demosthenes, a maker of swords, and Cleobule, an orator, of the Paeanian deme, who was endowed with more diligence and study than with natural facility of genius, as Hermippus is the author, etc. (See *Batalus* above.) He applied his mind to the study of eloquence when he had seen Callistratus pleading for the Oropians. He heard Isæus, a disciple of Isocrates, and used the orations of Zoilus of Amphipolis, who taught eloquence at Athens, and likewise those of Polycrates and Alcidamas (a disciple of Gorgias) and Isocrates himself. In his study of eloquence he had as associates Æsion the Athenian and Theophrastus the Chian, the philosopher. Furthermore, he heard Eubulides the dialectician and Plato. He died in Calabria, whither he had fled for fear of Antipater, king of Macedonia, when he was to be seized by force by Archias the actor; he took poison in the temple of Neptune, which he carried in his ring, after he had lived sixty-two years, etc. Upon his death, a statue was placed in the forum at Athens, with these words inscribed on its base: "If you had possessed strength equal to your judgment, Demosthenes, the Macedonian Ares would never have ruled over the Greeks." D
Demosthenes, *Mhrax*, wrote a paraphrase of the *Iliad* in prose. An epitome of Damagetus the Heracleote. On the dithyrambic poets. A paraphrase of Hesiod's *Theogony*.
Ætas, the golden fleece that Jason, having set out for Colchis across the Pontic sea with the Argonauts, seized, having simultaneously abducted Medea, the daughter of King Ætas; it was not a fleece, as the fables tell, but a book written on skins.
written, a book inscribed on parchment, teaching how gold is to be produced by chemical art. Rightly, therefore, did the ancients call that book the Golden Fleece, on account of the art of producing gold contained therein.
Dexicrates, a comic poet, an Athenian, whose play *Those Deceiving Themselves* (ὑπ’ ἑαυτῶν πλανώμενοι) is mentioned by Athenaeus, book III.
A Δέξιος, and by nature Theramenes. Theramenes, a man inconsistent and accommodating himself to the times, a teacher of Isocrates, son of Agnon, of the Sterian people (see above under *Cothurnus*). They say he was the author of these three punishments (at Athens): that the condemned should either be bound in wooden shackles, or drink hemlock, or be punished with exile. However, he appears to have originated from the island of Ceos, and to have been not the natural son of Agnon, but an adopted one. Thucydides praises him.
Dexippus, Herennius. Son of Dexippus, an Athenian, a rhetorician in the times of the emperors Valerian, Gallienus, Claudius II, and Aurelian. See Kuster’s note 7, vol. I, p. 524.
Dexippus, of Cos, a physician, a disciple of Hippocrates, who, being summoned by Hecatomnus, king of Caria, to treat his sons, Mausolus and Pixodarus, who were laboring under a desperate illness, healed them on the condition that he [Hecatomnus] would abandon the war which he was then preparing against the Coans. He wrote one book *On Medical Matters*, and two *On Prognostications*.
B Διαγνώμων αὐτοφυής, a natural intuitive judge (literally: "natural discerner"), capable of distinguishing, by natural instinct, living images from those empty of life and spirit, Heraiscus. Confer under Εὐπρέπιος Ἡραΐσκος in Epiphanius (from Damascius).
Diagoras, son of Teleclides or Teleclytus, a Melian philosopher and writer of songs (ᾀσμάτων ποιητής). When he was a slave, Democritus of Abdera, perceiving him to be endowed with extraordinary talent, bought him for ten thousand drachmae and received him into the number of his disciples. He also applied himself to lyric poetry, being a contemporary of Pindar and Bacchylides, and older than Menalippides; he flourished in the 78th Olympiad. He was nicknamed the Atheist, because he fell into the opinion of denying the gods, from which time a certain rival had stolen his paean, and upon swearing he had not done it, nor yet a little later publicly producing it himself, all things had gone well for him. Grieved by this, Diagoras wrote his *Arguments from the Tower* (τοὺς ἀποπυργίζοντας λόγους), as you might say, those precipitating or casting down from a tower, containing the account of his departure from the opinion of those who believe in gods. After the capture of Melos, he lived at Athens, where the Athenians proscribed him as a contemner of the mysteries, and promised a talent to anyone who killed Diagoras, and two talents to anyone who brought him back alive. Finally, he ended his life at Corinth.
Dicæarchus, son of Phidias, a Sicilian from Messene, a pupil of Aristotle, philosopher, orator, and geometer. He wrote *Dimensions* (καταμετρήσεις), the dimensions of the mountains that are in the Peloponnese; *Life of Greece* (Ἑλλάδος βίον), in three books. *Affairs of the Spartans*. It was a law sanctioned among the Lacedaemonians, and observed for a long time, that this book should be read annually in the Ephors’ hall before the youth.
Dicæarchus, a Lacedaemonian, a grammarian, a pupil of Aristarchus.
Dicæogenes, who wrote tragedies and dithyrambs.
Δικάζεσθαι, *To enter a lawsuit*, superior to Bias of Priene. See under *Bias*.
Dictys, a historian, wrote the *Journal* (Ephemeris), also of things done after that time, in which he ends his nine books of prose narration. *Italian Affairs*. Also *Trojan Order* (Τρωϊκὸν διάκοσμον), on the abduction of Helen, and all the parts of the Trojan history. During the reign of the emperor Claudius, Crete being shaken by an earthquake, the historical work of Dictys on the Trojan War was found in a certain chasm, which Claudius, when he received it, caused to be copied. [Conf. Kuster, note 1, page 590.]
C Διδάσκαλους; specifically, they call poets of dithyrambs, or comedies, or tragedies, "teachers."
Didymus, Ateius or Attius, an Academic philosopher, wrote *Solutions of Probable Arguments and Sophisms* (πιθανῶν καὶ σοφισμάτων λύσεις) in two books, and many other things.
Didymus, son of Didymus, a salt-fish dealer, an Alexandrian grammarian of the school of Aristarchus, who lived in the times of Antony and Cicero even up to Augustus. He was called Chalcenterus (Brazen-gut) on account of the assiduity with which he used his time for reading and writing. They say that he wrote more than 3,500 books. Comparison should be made with Kuster, note 2, vol. II, page 574.
Didymus the Younger, an Alexandrian grammarian, who taught eloquence (ἐσοφίστευσεν) at Rome. He wrote *Probabilities* (πιθανὰ) and many other excellent works.
Claudius Didymus, a grammarian, wrote *On mistakes contrary to analogy by Thucydides* (περὶ τῶν ἡμαρτημένων παρὰ τὴν ἀναλογίαν Θουκυδίδῃ), about those things which are spoken by Thucydides contrary to analogy. *On the analogy among the Romans* (Περὶ τῆς παρὰ Ῥωμαίοις ἀναλογίᾳ). An epitome of Heracleon and other things.

Didymus, an Alexandrian, wrote fifteen books on husbandry.
Apostle Thomas was also called Didymus.
Διεξοδικούς, *Rhetorical differentiations from dialectics*, from Alexander Aphrodisiensis (in 1 Topicor).
Ἀνάχαρσις (Anacharsis), a Scythian, born of a Greek mother, and therefore bilingual, who also gave laws to the Scythians.
OF WHOM SUIDAS WRITES
A Dinarchus, a Corinthian, one of the ten orators, wrote according to some one hundred and sixty orations, or, as seems more true, sixty, all of them forensic, public, or private. He died in the Peloponnese, having been appointed prefect by Antipater, and with Polysperchon plotting snares for him after the death of Antipater.
Dinolochus, a Syracusan or Agrigentine, a comic poet, lived in the seventy-third Olympiad. The son, as some report, and pupil of Epicharmus. He taught plays written in the Doric dialect.
Diocles, an Athenian or Phliasian, a comic poet of the old comedy, contemporary with Sannyrion and Philylius. His plays are: *Thalatta* (this is the name of a harlot, according to Athenaeus), *Melittai*, *Oneiroi*, *Bacchae*, *Thyestes* II. They say he invented a certain musical harmony, consisting of the sound of basins and earthenware vessels, which he struck with a wooden rod.
Diocletianus (Diocletian) handed down books *On Chemistry* by fire, etc. See above, in *Chemia*.
Diodorus, a comic poet, whose dramas *Aulētris*, *Epiklēros*, and *Panēgyristai* are mentioned by Athenaeus.
Diogenianus, a Heracleote, from Pontus, a grammarian in the time of Hadrian. It must be considered whether he was perhaps a physician, originating from Albace in Heraclea, a town of Caria; for he was learned in every kind of doctrine, and I have not found it expressly stated that he was from Heraclea of Pontus, but some suppose so. His books are: *Vocabularies of every kind in alphabetical order*, in five books. It is, however, an epitome of the words which Pamphilus and Zopyrion had expounded in ninety-five books. *Florilegium of Epigrams*; *Concerning rivers, lakes, fountains, mountains and promontories*; *A brief review of rivers in alphabetical order*; *A collection and table of all the cities of the whole earth*, and others.
B Diodorus, a monk, lived in the times of the emperors Julian and Valens, and was bishop in Tarsus of Cilicia. He wrote various works, as Theodorus Lector records in his *Ecclesiastical History*: *Interpretations of the whole Old Testament*; *Genesis, Exodus and the rest*; *On the Psalms*; *On the four books of Kings*; *On the more difficult passages of Paralipomenon*; *On Proverbs*; *How theory (62) differs from allegory*; *On Ecclesiastes*; *On the Song of Songs*; *On the prophets*; *A Chronicle*, in which the errors admitted by Eusebius Pamphili are corrected; *On the four Gospels*; *On the Acts of the Apostles*; *On the Epistle of John the Evangelist*; *Concerning the fact that there is one God in Trinity*; *Against the Melchisedechians*; *Against the Jews*; *On the resurrection of the dead*; *On the soul*; *Against the various heretical opinions concerning it*; *Chapters addressed to Gratian*; *Against astronomers and astrologers and fate*; *On the sphere and the seven zones and the contrary movement of the stars*; *On the sphere of Hipparchus*; *On Providence*; *Against Plato concerning God and the gods*; *On nature and matter*, in which work he treats of that which is just; *On God and the false matter of the Greeks*; *That invisible natures were not made from elements, but together with them out of nothing*; *To Euphronius the philosopher*, by way of questions and answers; *Against Aristotle concerning the celestial body*; *How the sun is hot*; *Against those who say the heaven is an animal*; *On how the maker [is] indeed eternal, but his works not eternal* (whether they exist or remain); *How willing and not willing are eternal in God*; *Against Porphyry concerning animals and sacrifices*.
Valerius Diodorus, a philosopher, a pupil of Telecles, an Alexandrian, son of (Valerius) Pollio, a philosopher, who wrote of Attic terms. He lived in the times of Hadrian Caesar.
Diodorus Siculus, an historian, wrote a *Library*, which comprises Roman and miscellaneous history in eleven books. He lived in the times of Augustus and before him.
C Diogenes, son of Hicesius a money-changer, a Sinopian, first nicknamed Cleon (Menag. *Klōn*), a fugitive from his homeland because he had adulterated the currency, followed Antisthenes the Cynic, having contemned his riches. When an old man, he was captured by Scirtalus, a pirate, and sold to Xeniades the Corinthian; he remained with him, willing to be redeemed neither by the Athenians nor by his friends. He died in the hundred and thirteenth Olympiad, having neglected the treatment of his leg, which had been bitten by a dog, on the same day that Alexander died in Babylon, etc.
Diogenes, or Diogenianus, of Cyzicus, a grammarian, wrote *Origins of Cyzicus*; *On critical notes in books*; *On poetics*; *On elements*.
Diogenes or Oenomaus, an Athenian, a tragic poet, in the time of the fall of the thirty tyrants. His plays are *Achilles, Helena, Hercules, Thyestes, Medea, Oedipus, Chrysippus, Semele*.
Dion, son of Hipparinus, a Syracusan, a Platonic philosopher, brother of Aristomache, wife of Dionysius the elder, tyrant of Sicily, whose son, Dionysius the younger, he expelled, being in turn expelled by his brother, Nisaeus. He wrote *Epistles to Plato* and certain others.
Dion Cassius, with the surname Cocceius or Cocceianus, of Nicaea, an historian in the times of Alexander, son of Mammaea. He wrote eighty books of *Roman History*, which are distributed into decades. Also *Persica, Getica* (63), *Enodia, the matters concerning Trajan*, *res Trajanoge—*
D *tas*, *Life of Arrian the philosopher*.
Dionysius the Areopagite, very expert in the doctrine of the Greeks, after hearing Paul at Athens, was converted to the Christian religion and was subsequently appointed bishop of Athens. In the times of Tiberius he had traveled to Egypt, in the company of Apollophanes the sophist, the same whom Polemo the Laodicean, master of Aristides, heard at Smyrna. At the time of the passion of Christ both were at Heliopolis in Egypt, when Apollophanes, observing the moon obscuring the full sun: "O good...
A Dionysius, he says, these are the changes of divine things." To which Dionysius: "Either God suffers, or he suffers together with the sufferer." Dionysius wrote to Timothy, a disciple of Paul and bishop of Ephesus, twelve books (or rather chapters, the titles of which Suidas lists sequentially, having omitted the thirteenth, *On that which is absolutely one*) *On Divine Names*. *On Ecclesiastical Hierarchy*, fifteen chapters; *On Celestial Hierarchy*, fifteen chapters, from which Suidas strangely separates *On the heavenly orders and as many as these are in number*. *On Mystical Theology*, five chapters. Four epistles to Gaius the monk. Individual letters to Dorotheus the civil official, to Sopater the priest, to Polycarp the bishop of Smyrna (from which Suidas brings forward the passage concerning the eclipse already mentioned), to Demophilus the monk, and to John the theologian, apostle and evangelist. It must be known that some of the external sages, especially Proclus, made use of the theorems of Dionysius, and sometimes of his very words. Hence, it is possible to suspect that the older philosophers who were in Athens claimed for themselves the works of his mentioned by him while writing to Timothy, and hid them, so that they might appear to be the authors of his divine discourses. This man, full of days, was perfected in spirit by martyrdom in the time of the Emperor Trajan, the same in which the divine Ignatius was. Michael Syncellus of Jerusalem wrote an encomium of the great Dionysius.
Dionysius, Terus, Alexandrian, son of Tero, a Thracian, a disciple of Aristarchus, a grammarian who taught at Rome in the times of Pompey the Great and was the tutor of the elder Tyrannion. He wrote many grammatical and syntactical works and commentaries.
Dionysius the Alexandrian, son of Glaucus, a grammarian who lived in the time of Nero and the subsequent emperors up to Trajan and was in charge of the libraries, and was in charge of letters, embassies, and responses. He was also the master of the grammarian Parthenius, and a disciple of the philosopher Chaeremon, whom he also succeeded at Alexandria.
Dionysius the Alexandrian, whose very learned commentary on *Ecclesiastes of Solomon* I have found.
Dionysius, son of Alexander, of Halicarnassus, orator, and accomplished in every kind of learning, lived in the times of Caesar Augustus. Among his descendants was Dionysius the Atticizer, under the Emperor Hadrian.
Dionysius of Halicarnassus, who lived in the time of the Emperor Hadrian, a sophist, surnamed Musicus D because he was very well exercised in the art of music. He wrote twenty-four books of *Rhythmic Commentaries*. Thirty-six books of *History of Music*, in which he makes mention of flute players, cithara players, and poets of every kind. Twenty-one books of *Musical Doctrine* or *Diatribes*. "Concerning those things which are spoken of musically in Plato’s *Republic*."
Dionysius of Byzantium, epic poet. He wrote a *Description of the Navigation through the Bosporus*. A poem filled with funeral dirges *On Threnes*.
Dionysius, Corinthian, epic poet. He wrote *Precepts of Morals*, a book of *Causes*, *Meteorology*; and in prose *A Commentary on Hesiod*, *Description of the Earth*, in heroic verses. I have found these things also in the Dionysius who wrote *Lithica* or *On Stones*. Whose these works are, I do not know.
Dionysius, Milesian, historian. He described the *Res Gestae* in five books. *Description of the Earth*, *Persica*. In the Ionic dialect, *Rerum Trojanarum* in three books: a lamp. *Cyclum historicum* in seven books.
Dionysius of Mitylene, epic poet, he was called Scutobrachion and the shoemaker. He wrote *The Expedition of Bacchus and Minerva*: *Argonautica* in six books, and in prose *Mythica* to Permenon.
Dionysius, son of Musonius, Rhodian or Samian, historian, who was also a priest at the temple of the Sun, which was there. He wrote *Local Histories* of certain regions in six books, a *Description*, *Educational History*, in ten books. I think that the Dionysius who described the region was a Byzantine (Vossius reads Bithynum), on account of the river Rhebas.
Dionysius, tyrant of Sicily, wrote tragedies and comedies and histories.
Dionysius, son of the tyrant of Sicily, himself also a tyrant and philosopher, wrote epistles and *On the Poems of Epicharmus*.
*Dionysia scemmata*, jests at the Bacchic festivals.
Diopithes had passed a law, as Aelian reports, that it should be a capital crime for anyone to stay overnight in the Piraeus. He himself, however, when he had once stayed the night in the Piraeus because evening had overtaken him, was accused by his enemies.
Dioscorides, of Anazarbus, physician, surnamed Phacas, because of the spots which he had on his face. He lived under Cleopatra in the time of Antony and wrote twenty-four books, all on medicine, and they are very famous.
Dioscorius, of Aetolia, a grammarian, prefect of the city and the praetorium, who taught the daughters of the Emperor Leo at Byzantium. See below under *Thateira*.
Dioxippus, Athenian, comic poet. His plays are *Antipornoboscos*, *Philargyrus*, *Historiographus*, *Dicazomeni*.
*Diphthera*. *Eis diphtheras*, written on skins; he communicated his designs to the enemy in Laconia.
*Dipnosophistae*, a very useful book, of which the author is Athenian. Ulpian is one of the Dipnosophists, etc. See above, *Ceitouceitos*.
*Dithyrambodidascali*. These were accustomed to speak much about the things that happen in the heights and the clouds, and they used compound words, saying for example *aeria-nerin-che-tous*. Such was Ion of Chios, a poet, who composed a poem, the beginning of which is: "Aotou phoitan astera mena men," whence Aristophanes says he was called the morning star.
A ...he was also very celebrated, and he wrote comedies, and epigrams, and in prose, a *Presbeutikon* (Embassy Oration). There exists also a discourse of Socrates, the philosopher, concerning him. Callimachus also mentions him in his *Choriambi*, and says that he wrote many things. Now the *Dithyrambus* is said to be Bacchus (because he came forth into the light as if through double doors, both from the womb of his mother, Semele, and then from the thigh of Jove), and a hymn to Bacchus. Finally, "Thou hast a mind less than a *Dithyramb*" is said of stupid and inconsiderate men.
*Dogmata*. Plato, what he perceives to be true, he declares; what is false, he refutes; concerning uncertain things, he withholds assent. And he introduces four persons speaking about those things which seem true to him: Socrates, Timaeus, the stranger from Athens, and the Eleatic; who are not Plato himself and Parmenides, but two fictitious persons, etc. Some philosophers say the world has had a beginning; others say it has been without a beginning. Furthermore, some set it down as animate, others as inanimate. But Anaxagoras and Pythagoras, having traveled to Egypt, and having used the customs of the Egyptians and Hebrews, drew their knowledge of things from them. But afterwards, Plato also did this, as Plutarch reports in his *Parallels*. Indeed, even the Egyptians were the first to call the sun and moon gods. Osiris and Isis, "gods running, etc."
Domitian removed Nerva, as one conspiring against the empire, and Apollonius of Tyana, as a friend of Nerva; having arrested him, he shied and brought him in chains to judgment. But when the philosopher would not yield to him, mocking his deeds, moved by shame, he dismissed him. Then Apollonius said to him: "You will by no means kill me; for I am not yet fated to die"; and they say he vanished on the spot. He also expelled the philosophers and mathematicians from Rome. Under him also, John the Evangelist was relegated to Patmos. He also ordered those of Davidic lineage to be killed, and many Christians were made martyrs under him. But Nerva liberated John the Theologian from exile.
Domninus, a philosopher, a Syrian by nation, from Laodicea or Larissa, a city of Syria, a disciple of Syrianus and a fellow-disciple of Proclus, as Damascius says. He was trained in mathematical disciplines, but in other parts of philosophy, he was even "surface-skimming," that is, less accurate. Wherefore Proclus also wrote against him a *Treatise on the Purification of the Dogmas of Plato*, a Repurgation of the Platonic dogmas. Ordered by Aesculapius, because he was spitting blood, to feed on swine's flesh, he obeyed; but Plutarch, the Athenian, looking at the statue of Aesculapius (for he was sleeping in the vestibule of the temple), said: "O Lord, what if you had recommended a remedy to a Jew laboring under this disease?" Therefore Aesculapius, immediately emitting a most sweet sound from the statue, prescribed to him another method of curing the disease. To Domninus, already advanced in age, approached Asclepiades, a young man, and proposed to him an arithmetic theorem, etc.
Dorian song, B *Dorios aulesis*, is a certain mode of music, as also the Lydian and Phrygian. — *Dorios* is, moreover, a proper name, and *Doriscus* the name of a place.
Dorus (*Dōros*), an Arab, whom Damascius in his *Philosophical History* says was a most keen investigator of truth. Isidorus, the philosopher, initially perceived him to be ensnared in Aristotelian opinions, and little by little recalled him to those magnificent, sublime, and illustrious thoughts of Platonic science, so that, having rejected that Peripatetic subtlety which gathers trifling things, he might betake himself to that [science] which was sent down to men from heaven through a certain Prometheus with the splendor of fire, dialectic, which is the purest *autopsia* or inspection of the mind and prudence.
*Dosis*. Among the orators, the tablets of a will are specifically called by this name, in which someone gives what is his own to another, with the intervention of the authority of the magistrates or archons.
Draco, the Athenian legislator. When he was being celebrated at Aegina in the theater on account of the laws he had enacted with happy acclamations, he was suffocated by many hats and tunics and cloaks thrown upon his head, and buried in the theater itself. He lived in the same times as the seven wise men, or rather was older than them. When he was already an old man, in the 29th Olympiad, he gave laws to the Athenians. *Hypothekai*, or precepts for living, he wrote in about three thousand verses.
Draco, grandson of that most celebrated doctor Hippocrates, son of Thessalus, father of Hippocrates, whose son was again Draco, and he himself a doctor, who cured Rhoxana, the wife of Alexander the Macedonian.
Draco of Stratonicea, a grammarian, wrote *On the Art of Grammar*: *Orthography*; *On Conjugated Nouns*; *On Pronouns*; *On the Meters of Verses*; *On Satyrs*; *On the Poems of Pindar*; *On the Meters of Sappho*; *On the Poems of Alcaeus*.
[E] *Ekbiastes*. "For both are enforcers of justice, and they prick us toward the end of justice," both are keen exactors of the law, who incite us with goads to the most exact justice. These things are said concerning Gregory and Basil.
*Exekophe*. "Music is cut off." When the ancients were once accustomed to discuss learned questions at banquets, their descendants introduced singing girls and cithara players and dancers in their place. Whence some, criticizing this *kainotomia* (novelty), used that proverb.
*Ek Massalias hekeis*, "You come from Massalia," is said of effeminate and delicate men, such as the Massalians are said to have been of old.
*Elater*. "You will recognize Alcman, the skilled player of the Laconian lyre, Whom the number of the nine Muses holds."
Elea, the fatherland of Zeno, once Hyele, of the Phocaeans.
A a colony, an obscure town, and one that was only able to nourish good men. Zeno loved this more than the boasting of the Athenians; and so, rarely having stayed among them, he grew old in his fatherland.
*Elegeirein* is the term some of the ancients used for "to rave." And there are those who think the elegiac poem is named from this. Theocles, a Naxian or Eretrian, seized by madness, was the first to sing this poem.
*Elegus*, a mournful poem, is so called because it is often said in it simply "alas." Or they are lamentations that are sung to the flute. They say that afterwards, while Midas, son of Gordius, was reigning, he brought the flute to the altars and to sacrifices, because he wished to enroll his deceased mother into the number of the goddesses.
Eleusius, a Cyzicenian, a Marathonian, and a Constantinopolitan, not indeed endowed with great facility for speaking, but by a severe style of life and the simulation of feigned modesty, attained great authority; he gathered many followers to himself and established monasteries, filled with a huge multitude of people of both sexes.
Empedocles, son of Meto, or of Archinomus, or of Xenetus, brother of Callicratidas, first heard Parmenides, of whom, as Porphyry is witness in his *Philosophical History*, he was also the beloved. Others say he was a disciple of Telauges, the son of Pythagoras. An Agrigentine, a natural philosopher, he followed the sect of Pythagoras, which Apollonius of Tyana also emulated, etc. He had as a disciple Gorgias, the Leontine orator. He wrote in heroic verse three books *On the Nature of Things*. There are, however, about two thousand verses. Also *On Medicine* in prose, and many other things, etc. The enmity of Empedocles is a proverb, which is said of those who bear long-lasting enmities against some.
Empedotimus wrote *On Physical Audition*, of which Julian says in the work that is inscribed *Cronia*: "We, however, believing in Empedotimus and Pythagoras, and in those things which Heraclides Ponticus handed down as received from them, and which that famous interpreter of divine things, Iamblichus, showed us a little while ago."
*Eniautos Metonos*, the year of Meto, that is, the cycle of nineteen years. For Meto, the mathematician, discovered a period of time consisting of XIX years.
Ennius, a Roman poet (that is, a Latin one), whom Aelian says is worthy of praise because, desiring to extol Scipio magnificently, he wrote that only Homer could sing praises worthy of him, and thus the Messapian poet (that is, Ennius, who traced his origin from King Messapus) demonstrated that he understood his excellence.
*En pente kriton gonasi*, "In the knees of the five judges." Formerly five judges used to pass judgment on the comedians, as Epicharmus says. The saying is an imitation of this: "It lies on the knees of the gods." Formerly they used to have in their laps what is now written in tablets.
Epaphroditus, of Chaeronea, a grammarian, a student of the Alexandrian grammarian, was purchased by Modestus, the prefect of Egypt, whose son Pitelinus he tutored. He flourished at Rome from the time of Nero down to Nerva: during which time lived Ptolemy, the son of Hephaestion, and many other men distinguished in learning. B He also purchased books from time to time, as many as thirty thousand, and he considered them good and not at all common. In body he was large and dark, suffering from elephantiasis (*elephantiodes*). He lived in Phoenicia, where he had two houses. He died of dropsy, at the age of seventy-five, and left behind many writings.
*Epeiou deiloteros*, "More cowardly than Epeus." Cratinus, the comic poet, was so called, perhaps because when he was presiding over the *Aeneid* [sic], he seemed more cowardly. Epeus was a coward.
Ephectici, philosophers so called from *ephehein*, to inhibit, because they inhibited assent regarding matters and established that they could not be comprehended. And, as they say, [they hold] things to be incomprehensible.
Ephesian letters, that is, certain obscure incantations, which they say Croesus also spoke on the funeral pyre. And when the Milesian and the Ephesian were wrestling, they say the Milesian could not wrestle because the other had bound the Ephesian letters around his ankle. But when those were discovered, and those letters were loosed, the Ephesian was C thrice prostrated.
Ephippus, an Athenian, a comic poet of the Middle Comedy.
Ephippus, a Cuman, son of Demophilus or Antiochus, a student of the orator Isocrates, a historian, who had a son Demophilus, a historian. He lived in the XCIII Olympiad, so that he preceded the kingdom of Philip of Macedon. He wrote *Histories* from the taking of Ilium and the Trojan War down to his own times, XXX books; *On Good and Evil Books*, XXIV; *Remarkable things of each place*, which are observed in any region, XV books; *On the things which each one discovered*, II books, and others.
Ephorus, a Cuman, and Theopompus, son of Damasistratus, a Chian, both students of Isocrates, but by nature and style they differed as much as possible between themselves. For D Ephorus was of a simple nature, and as far as his historical diction is concerned, he was always sluggish and slow and remiss. Theopompus, however, was of a sharp and malicious nature; but in diction he was copious and dense, and full of vehemence: otherwise he was a student of the truth in the things he wrote. Isocrates, therefore, said that the latter needed reins, but Ephorus needed spurs. Theopompus, however...
having been ejected into exile, fled as a suppliant to the temple of Diana at Ephesus. He also sent many letters against the Chians to Alexander, and adorned him with many praises. It is said that he also wrote a vituperation, but it is not extant.
Epicharmus, the son of Tityrus or Chimarus or Sicidus, a Syracusan, or from the city of the Sicani, Crastus, who, together with Phormio, invented comedy at Syracuse. He taught LII plays, or, as Lycon says, XXXV. Some report that he was a Coan, one of those who migrated with Cadmus to Sicily; others say he was a Samian; others, that he originated from Megara, a city of Sicily. He was at Syracuse for six years teaching before the Persian War; at which time Euetes, Euxenides, and Mylus were producing plays at Athens.
Epicrates, an Athenian orator, called σακεσφόρος (shield-bearer), whom Aristophanes, the comic poet, and Demosthenes the orator, in his oration *On the False Embassy*, mention. Another, whom Lycurgus mentions in his oration *On the Administration of the Treasury*, is said to have possessed six hundred talents in wealth. Another Epicrates, a relative B of the orator Aeschines, who was nicknamed Cyrebion by him, as testified by Demosthenes in his oration *Against Aeschines*.
Epictetus of Hierapolis in Phrygia, a philosopher, was a servant of Epaphroditus, one of the bodyguards of the Emperor Nero. Because of a deformity in his leg, he lived in the new city of Epirus, Nicopolis, and prolonged his life to the reign of M. Antoninus. He wrote much. Theosebius, a philosopher, took much from the lectures of Epictetus, and added some things he devised himself. Wherefore he also set forth precepts of life in such books and bequeathed them to posterity, such as those of Epictetus; so that he seems to be an Epictetus of our own time, except for the Stoic opinions. For Theosebius did not embrace or admire the opinions of any writer as much as the truth of Plato. Moreover, he wrote a certain booklet concerning things well said in the *Republic* of Plato. Although he did not enter public life, but followed a private manner of life, which that Socrates, and Epictetus, and *πᾶς εὖ φρονῶν* (everyone who thinks well), and any sensible man strives for, etc., from Damascius.
Epicurus, son of Neocles, an Athenian, of the deme Gargettus, C with Chærestrata as his mother, brother of Neocles, Chæredenus, and Aristobulus, or Aristodemus, began to philosophize from the twelfth year of his age: the founder of a peculiar sect. At first, he lived with his parents in Samos, then for one year at Mitylene he presided over a school, afterwards he taught at Lampsacus, and finally at Athens in his garden. He studied under Nausiphanes the Democritean and Pamphilus, a disciple of Plato. He was born in the CIX Olympiad, seven years after the death of Plato, and prolonged his life up to the successors of Alexander the Great and Antigonus, who was called Gonatas. His school remained until the first Caesar for two hundred and thirty-seven years, and within that time it had XIV successors. His writings are many. In his will he ordered that his companions, Metrodorus and Polyænus, should once each year offer sacrifices for him, but for himself twice, etc. Epicureans were ejected from Rome by a decree of the Senate, and the Messenians drove them out in Arcadia, and those having been expelled, they caused the whole city to be cleansed by Timuchus, their magistrates, as if liberated from certain filth and refuse. In Crete also, the Lyctians [(68)] cast out certain Epicureans who had arrived there, and passed a law: "Let the Epicureans, the inventors of an effeminate, degenerate, and D shameful wisdom, and hateful to the gods, be ordered by the voice of a herald to depart from Lyctos," etc.
Epigenes, the comic. Among his plays are *Heroine*, *Mnematium*, *Bacchæ* (or as Kuster, from Athenæus IX, page 184, prefers *Bacchæ*). Documented by Athenæus. Kuster adds the names of two others.

Epylicus, a comic poet. Among his plays is *Kopallochos*, as testified by Athenæus, book IV, pages 133 and 146, where it is written *Korallochos*.
Epimenides, son of Phæstus or Dosiades or Agiasarchus, with Blasta as his mother, a Cretan of Cuossos, an epic poet. They say that his soul departed from his body for as long as he himself wished, and afterwards returned into it, and that a long time after his death his skin was found *γράμμασι κατάστικτον*, marked with letters. Hence the proverb *ἐπιμενίδιον δέρμα* (Epimenidean skin) for things recondite. He lived in the XXX Olympiad, so that he preceded the seven wise men of Greece in age, or at least reached them. Now as an old man, he cleansed Athens, which was polluted by the Cylonian crime, in the XLIV Olympiad. He wrote many things in verse: and likewise in prose, certain mysteries and cleansings and other enigmatic things. Solon the legislator wrote to him, criticizing the cleansing of the city. He lived for CL years and slept for six continuous years.
Epinicus, also a comic poet, from whose plays *Hypoballomenai* is noted by Athenæus.
Epiphanius, son of Ulpian, a Petrean, a sophist, who taught both in his fatherland, Petra, and at Athens. He wrote *Περὶ κοινωνίας καὶ διαφορᾶς τῶν στάσεων* ("On those things which the status of causes have in common and in what they differ"). *Progymnasmata*. *Declamations*. *Demarchic Orations*. The *Polemarchic Oration*. *Λόγους ἐπιδεικτικούς*, or *Specimens of Eloquence*, and certain miscellaneous *Theorems*.
Epiphanius, bishop of Constantia, a city of Cyprus, formerly called Salamis. He wrote against all heresies, books which are called *Panaria*. Also many other things, which are read by the learned for the matters themselves, and by the unlearned for the style. He passed away in extreme old age.

For poetry, which lacks a fable, is epopoeia. Erasistratus, a Juliate of Ceos from the Juliade, a town of the island of Ceos, son of Cretoxena, sister of the physician Medicus, and of Cleombrotus. He healed King Antiochus, who was suffering from love for his stepmother Stratonice. He was buried near Mount Mycale, in the region of Samos. He wrote 9 books *On Medicine*. Eratosthenes, son of Aglaos or Ambrosius, a Cyrenaean, disciple of Ariston the philosopher of Chios, and of Lysanias the Cyrenaean, and of Callimachus the poet. Summoned from Athens by Ptolemy III, he lived until the fifth (Ptolemy). Because he held the second place in every kind of learning and was closest to the highest men, he was called Beta. Others called him a second or younger Plato, others *pentathlos* and "the five-thlete." He was born in the CXXVI Olympiad, died at the age of LXXX, from starvation due to dimmed eyesight, having left behind a distinguished disciple, Aristophanes of Byzantium, whose disciple was Aristarchus, and whose disciples in turn were Mnaseas, Menander, and Aristis. He wrote philosophical works, poems, and histories. *Astronomy* or *Catasterisms* concerning those who have been transferred among the stars.

She also made epigrams. She died a virgin at XIX years of age, a friend and contemporary of Sappho. Her verses were judged equal to Homeric ones. Eriphus, a comic poet, from whose tenets: *Aeolus*, *Peltastes*, *Meliboea*, as Athenaeus says, in book XIV of the *Deipnosophists*. ‘Ἐς Μασσαλίαν πλεῖς’ (You are sailing to Massalia) is said of those who live effeminately and softly, V, above, *ex Massalias*, and Athen.

I, page 885, says that those which exist today in various libraries and bear the name of Eudemus the rhetorician are considered to be pseudepigrapha]. ‘Ἐν διάγειν’ (To live in). Epicurus prescribed this formula of greeting in his letters. Cleon, however, (used) Plato’s ‘εὖ πράττειν’ (To fare well).

A Eudoxus, on the tranquility of the soul, taught that it is the end and highest state of happiness, etc.
Euterius, in the times of the Emperor Jovian, was not inferior to the ancients in doctrine and excellence of talent, but he was passed over by those who, from soft simplicity, were ensnared in the traps of judgment.
Eugenius, son of Trophimus, of Augustopolis, a Phrygian, a grammarian, taught at Constantinople, where he was very famous even as an old man in the time of the Emperor Anastasius. He wrote on the measurement of the melic verses of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides in fifteen plays. On the paeonic and palimbacchius meter; on the names of temples and how they should be pronounced, such as *Dionysion*, *Asclepieion*.

Eunidae, a family of cithara-players among the Athenians, serving in sacred rites.
Eunomius, in the time of the Emperor Valens, Bishop of Cyzicus, a notary of Actius, whom they nickname the atheist; having been with him for a long time, he imitated his sophistic method of arguing. His seven books in his epistle to the Romans and others that are circulated are full of an abundance of words, yet destitute of thought. From Socrates’ *Ecclesiastical History*, IV, 7.
Evodus, a Rhodian, an epic poet, lived in the time of Nero, an admirable Latin poet. None of his books exist.
Euphorion, son of Aeschylus, the tragedian, an Athenian, a tragedian himself, who, contending with plays that his father had not before published to the light, won four times; he also wrote some dramas.
Euphorion, son of Polymnestus, from Chalcis in Euboea, a disciple in philosophical studies of Lacydes and Prytanis: B and it is said that he was also a favorite of poets. He was born in the 126th Olympiad, at which time Pyrrhus was also defeated by the Romans. Nicias, wife of Alexander, King of Euboea, son of Craterus, loved him; hence, very wealthy, he betook himself to Antiochus the Great, King of Syria, and was the prefect of his library; having died there, he was buried at Apamea, or as others say, at Antioch. His books written in heroic verses are these: *Hesiod*, *Mopsopia* or *Miscellanea* in five books, a work containing miscellaneous histories, and it is inscribed *Mopsopia*, because Attica was once so called from Mopsopia, daughter of Oceanus. It ends at the Attic *Chiliad*; for the fifth book is inscribed C *he pempte* (i.e. the fifth book), *Chilias peri chresmon* (70), a Chiliad on oracles, which proved its outcome after a thousand years. For he argues against those who had defrauded him of money deposited with them, teaching that they would pay the penalty even after a long time.
Eupithius and Archiadas, two Hegiae (philosophers), sons, about whose talent and character some things are found in Damascius, etc.
Eupolis, an Athenian, a comic poet, who at seventeen years of age began to compete on the stage and produced 17 plays, won seven times.

His plays are: *Aiges*, *Astrateutos e Androgynos*, and others.
*Eu prattein*, this formula of greeting, Plato [used in his] 13 letters, and those of a moral nature. See above, *eu diagein*, and Cleon, *chairein*.

Euripides, an Athenian, a tragedian older than that famous Euripides. He taught 12 plays, won twice.
Euripides, son of Mnesarchus or Mnesarchides and Clito, not from a mother who was a vegetable-seller, but from a most noble lineage, as Philochorus demonstrates. He was born on the same day the Greeks routed the Persians. At first a painter, then a disciple of Prodicus in rhetoric, and of Socrates in moral doctrine and philosophical matters. He also heard Anaxagoras, whom, when he saw him coming into danger of his life for his dogmas, he gave his mind to tragedy, D a man of severe character and sad, whence he was also thought to be *misogynes*, or a woman-hater. Yet he married Choerina, daughter of Mnesilochus, from whom he begat Mnesilochus, Mnesarchides, and Euripides. Having repudiated her, he experienced another equally unchaste. Having left Athens, he lived in the highest honor with Archelaus, King of Macedonia, [and was] killed, as they say, by dogs through the treachery of Arrhidaeus, the Macedonian, and Crateuas, the Thessalian, poets who envied him: or torn apart by
A women, when by night he sought the delights of Craterus, of Archelaus, or the wife of Nicodemus of Arethusa.

He was victorious five times; he was still alive four times when he won, and once after his death, when Euripides, the son of his own brother, presented his play on the stage. He produced plays for 26 years in total. He died in the 113th Olympiad. Cf. Kuster’s notes.

He flourished most in the times of the Emperor Constantine and Constantius, and because of the friendship which existed between him and the martyr Pamphilus, he took an additional name from him. He also wrote *To Marinus*, in which work he says that the Church of Christ prescribes two kinds of life and institutions, one of which is excellent and placed above the common mode of human life, such as that of monks; the other is less sublime and accommodated to the common life of men, which does not shrink from marriage.
Eustathius, of Epiphaneia, wrote a *Chronological Compendium* of events from Aeneas down to the Emperor Anastasius in nine books.

Euxenus, a man not entirely upright, addicted to a life of activity and imbued with the manners of Epicurus. He understood the opinions of Pythagoras in such a way that, like birds that learn from men [to say] "Hail" or "Greet," or "May Zeus be propitious," he would hear the boy Apollonius, but as he progressed to his sixteenth year, he turned himself to the Pythagorean life, though he did not cease to love Euxenus, etc. (From Philostratus).
*Ex hamaxis*. There was a festival among the Athenians called the Lenaea, in which poets, seated on carts, would contend for the sake of causing laughter, which Demosthenes called *ex hamaxis*, "from the cart." The chorus of the Lenaea was called the Lenaeites.
*Exegetai*. There were three exegetes appointed by the Oracle of Apollo whose care it was to purify those who were bound by any sin. They were also called interpreters of the ancestral institutions and laws. Particularly, they were interpreters of sacred rites, who also gave responses concerning infernal matters and other laws pertaining to the dead.
Ezechias. There existed a book of Solomon, containing remedies for all diseases, which was inscribed on the threshold of the temple. Ezechias destroyed it, because the people were not turning their thoughts to God, but were seeking cures from there, neglecting the invocation of the divine Power.
[F]
Fabius Pictor, a Roman historian. He says that it was not permitted for any of the Roman magistrates to convert anything that was public into private use.
The Falcidian law was enacted by Caesar Gaius Octavius, having even now the greatest authority in successions of inheritances, invented by Falcidius, a tribune of the plebs.
Faunus, son of Picus or Jupiter, whom they called Mercury by name. He was an astronomer and invented the treatment of gold, silver, and iron, and taught the Westerners the method of working them. Wherefore he was also called by the natives *Plutodotes*, "giver of wealth." Attacked by treachery from his brothers in Egypt.
he fled into the tribe of Cham, the son of Noah, among whom he dwelt. The same, having put on a golden stole and predicting future things and bestowing wealth upon them, was even worshipped as a god by them. A
Favorinus, a Gaul of Arles, hermaphrodite in sex, most learned and skilled in philosophy, and addicted above all to rhetoric. He flourished in the time of the Emperor Trajan, and prolonged his life until the reign of Hadrian. He emulated Plutarch of Chaeronea, producing an almost countless number of books. He wrote philosophical and historical works, of which the number is great. Among his books are these: "On Homeric Philosophy," "On Socrates and his Erotic Art," "On Plato," "On the Diet of Philosophers," and others. He also wrote *gnomologika*, or sententious sayings. See Kuster, note, tom. III, p. 572.
The month of February, from a certain consul, Februus, a Gaul by birth, because he, driven by envy, had driven Camillus out of the City by lies, but afterwards he himself, after Camillus had routed the Brenni and received his case which he pleaded well, was shamefully cast out of the City, stripped of his clothing, wrapped in a rush mat and beaten with rods, was named Februus; and for other reasons, it was made shorter. Suidas perhaps narrates this from a certain Antigonius, but Kuster rightly judges it to be mere trifles.
Flaminius, *ochlokopos* and perfect demagogue, a vendor of words to the rude mob, and who wished to harangue the people beyond measure, but was inept at administering public affairs. (From Polybius, III, cap. 80.)
Fronto, of Emesa, an orator, who lived at Rome in the time of the Emperor Severus. He was a rival at Athens of Philostratus the Elder and Apsines of Gadara; he died there at about sixty years of age, and left as heir his sister's son, Frontonides, and Longinus, the critic. He wrote many orations.
Fulvia, wife of Antony. She placed the severed head of Cicero on her knees, and when she had most insultingly mocked it and spat upon it, she took his tongue, which had been pulled out, and pricked it with the needle she used to arrange her hair, and with many grave insults, ordered it to be exposed at the rostra, so that from the very place where he had once been heard haranguing against her, his head might be seen cut off.
G Gaianus, an Arab, sophist, disciple of Apsines of Gadara, lived in the times of Maximinus and Gordian, and wrote five books on the Construction of rhetoric, also an Art of Rhetoric and Declamations. He also taught eloquence at Berytus.
Galen, the most celebrated physician, of Pergamum, who lived at Rome in the times of Marcus, Commodus, and Pertinax; the son of Nicon, a geometer and architect, he composed medical and philosophical works, as well as grammatical and rhetorical ones, which, as they are known to all, I have thought superfluous to list. He lived seventy years.
Genethlias, son of Genethlius, from the city of Petra, a sophist, disciple of Minucianus and Agapetus, a rival at Athens B of Callinicus. His memory was such that he could repeat a declamation after having heard it once. He died young, at twenty-eight years of age.

Kuster, note 1, p. 475.
Gesius, born in Petra, was most famous in the medical art during the time of Emperor Zeno, and he completely eclipsed the glory of his teacher, Domnus the Jew, etc. When Heraiscus was being sought by order of Zeno, he hid him in his own home, and subsequently rendered the final rites for him when he died in flight. Basilicus was therefore sent by the Emperor and led Agapius and the other philosophers who were arrested into the praetorium. (From Damascius.)
"Know thyself," *tò nómisma paracháraxon*, Pythian precepts, "Know thyself and despise the opinion of the mob"; and: "Not the truth, but the adulterated coin." C
Goetia, magic, and pharmacy were discovered by the Medes and Persians. Magic is the invocation of benevolent demons, for the sake of accomplishing some good; such as those of Apollonius of Tyana, *chresmologuata*, "precepts and oracles". *Goetia*, from *gooi*, "from the lamentations," is so called because such sounds are heard around tombs, through which the souls of the departed are evoked from the underworld. *Pharmacia* is sorcery, by which lethal drugs or love potions are offered to someone. Magic and astrology originated from the Magusaeans, that is, the Persians. The Persians are called *Magoi* or *Magousaioi* by the natives. D
Gorgias, son of Charmantidas, brother of the physician Heredicus, of Leontini, a rhetorician, disciple of Empedocles, teacher of Polus of Agrigentum, and of Pericles, Isocrates, and Alcidamas of Elea, who also succeeded him in his school.

Gratianus, Emperor, detesting the cruelty of Valens toward the Christians, permitted all, by law, to hold meetings securely and freely in their own churches, [only] depriving the Eunomians, Photinians, and Manichaeans of their conventicles.
Gregory Nazianzen of Cappadocia, friend of Basil of Caesarea, an excellent grammarian and poet, was far more distinguished as a philosopher and orator *amphidexios*, most skilled.

Among these are: "On the death of his brother Caesarius"; "Funeral Oration on his father"; "Another on his sister Gorgonia"; "On the love of the poor";
"; A many others which are known to all. He followed the style of speaking which Polemo of Laodicea used, who taught eloquence at Smyrna and was the teacher of Aristides the rhetorician. He also wrote a book in hexameter verses, in which Virginity and Matrimony discourse with one another. Also, upon other subjects, he wrote in a diverse and all-encompassing genre of poetry, to the amount of thirty thousand lines. Philostorgius mentions this, although he was an Arian, etc. Gregory, having substituted another bishop for his own Church in his place, himself lived the life of a monk in the country and died in the thirteenth year of the Emperor Theodosius, having been over ninety years of age.
Gregory, bishop of Nyssa, brother of Basil of Caesarea, most learned and yielding to none of the ancients in the praise of eloquence. He wrote an excellent book *Against Eunomius* and another *On the Making of Man*, and very many other homilies. Also "On the Song of Songs," "On Ecclesiastes," and "To his sister Macrina," a long and elegant oration on the soul. He wrote many other things and that admirable "Encomium of Stephen," the first martyr, and the "Life of Gregory Thaumaturgus."
Gregory, who is also Theodore, Thaumaturgus, bishop of Neocaesarea in Pontus, on account of his study of Greek and Latin letters, from Cappadocia as a youth betook himself to Berytus and thence to Caesarea in Palestine with his brother Athenodorus. Origen instructed them for five years and gradually led them to the faith of Christ. Gregory, about to return to his homeland, gave thanks to Origen, who was present, in a *Panegyrical Oration* which even now exists. He wrote also a *Metaphrase* and an *Ecclesiastes*, that brief but admirable work; and many *Epistles*. He died under Aurelian, famous for the miracles which he performed as bishop. — Athenodorus, brother of Gregory, a sophist, wrote an "Oration on the Incarnation and the Faith."
Gregory, Hermias the philosopher, a brother entirely unlike the others, acted beyond measure and was quick for questions and disciplines, otherwise restless, etc. (From Damascius, *Philosophical History*.) "Gyges' ring," concerning men who are very crafty and cunning, etc. B *Gymnasia dialectica* (Dialectical Exercises). Aristotle and Theophrastus wrote books of this sort, by which they teach the method of reasoning probably on either side.
Gymnasius, Sidonius, a sophist, lived in the times of the Emperor Constantine. He wrote "Declamations" and a "Commentary on Demosthenes" and certain other things.
H
Heresy. Hippobotus says there are nine sects or disciplines of philosophers, "Megarian, Eretriac, Cyrenaic, Epicurean, Annicerian, Theodorian, Zenonian" or "Stoic, Academic, and Peripatetic," but he makes no mention of the Cynic, Eliac, and dialecticians. The Pyrrhonian will not be able to be called a sect, for it has no dogmas. Moreover, this eclectic sect was introduced by Potamo of Alexandria, who used to choose from each sect what pleased him, etc. (From Laertius, I, segm. 19 and 20.)
Harpocras, a friend of Ammonius (Hermias) and Nicomedes, Isidore, Horapollin, Heraiscus, etc., an Egyptian who lived in the time of the Emperor Zeno. See further under Horapollin. (From Damascius.)
Harpocration, an Argive, a Platonic philosopher, a friend of Caesar. He wrote twenty-four books of "Commentaries on Plato" and two books of a "Platonic Dictionary."
Harpocration (Caius), a sophist, wrote "On the figures of Antiphont" and "On the orations of Hyperides and Lysias," and other things.
Harpocration (Aelius), a sophist, wrote "On things which orators seem to have been ignorant of"; "Arguments of the orations of Hyperides"; "That the history of Herodotus is false"; "On military ranks among Xenophon"; "On the art of rhetoric"; "On the forms of orations."
Harpocration (Valerius), a rhetorician of Alexandria, wrote a "Lexicon of the Ten Orators"; *Anthōn synagōgēn*, or "Collection of Florilegia."
Hecataeus of Abdera, a philosopher, who was also surnamed the Critic because he was abundantly instructed in grammatical apparatus. He lived under the successors of Alexander the Great. He wrote, besides other things, on the poetry of Homer and Hesiod.
Hecataeus, son of Hegesander, a Milesian, lived in the times of Darius, who reigned after Cambyses (at which time also Dionysius of Miletus lived), in the 65th Olympiad, a geographer. Herodotus was younger than him, and Aristeas, who owes much to him. Hecataeus made himself a student of Protagoras, and he was the first to write history in prose, just as Pherecydes was the first (in philosophical matters) to set them forth in untrammeled speech. For the writings attributed to Acusilaus are spurious. (Infra, in *historesai*.)
C *Hekataion*. Theagenes had a shrine of Hecate, which he used to consult wherever he went. He was called *kapnos*, smoke. There were also other Theageneses, one of whom wrote about Homer, and the other was infamous for his softness. Conf. Küster's note, Vol. I, page 687.
Hecebolius, a sophist of Constantinople, under Constantius pretending to burn with the ardor of Christianity, under Julian a foolish pagan, and after his death once again a Christian, "conculcate me," he cried, "foolish salt."
Hegelochus, a tragic actor, in the *Orestes* of Euripides, instead of *galēna horō* (I see calm seas), pronounced it *galēn horō* (I see a weasel). Plato lashes him for his unpleasant voice.
Hegemon, mentioned by Demosthenes for Ctesiphon. He was one of those who favored the party of the Macedonians and were believed to be corrupted by bribes.
Hegemon of Thasos, nicknamed *Phakēn*. From his dramas, *Syke* (The Fig Tree), witness Athenaeus in the *Deipnosophists*, XV, c. 46, p. 699. V. Küster, p. 42, note 11; and p. 43, note 1.
Hegesippus, surnamed Crobylus, whose...
seventh Philippic is inscribed under the name of Demosthenes. Among his dramas is *Philetaerus*, as Athenaeus mentions.
Hegias surpassed his father in virtue and knowledge, and as a youth gave hope that he would not be inferior to Plutarch (the Athenian), whence Proclus held him, while still a young man, not unworthy of the audition of the Chaldean oracles, etc. (From Damascius.)
Helenus wrote a *cheiroscopikon oiōnisma* (a "divination which is performed by the inspection of the hands"). When someone's hands are spread out and open, we judge from their very lines that he is destined to be a begetter of children, or something similar.
Heliconius, a Byzantine sophist, wrote a *Summary Chronicle* from Adam down to Theodosius the Great, in ten books.
Heliconius, an astronomer, wrote *Apotelesmatica*, *Diosemeia*, and many other things.
Helladius, an Alexandrian, a grammarian who lived under the emperor Theodosius the Younger. He wrote in alphabetical order: concerning the usage of every kind of vocabulary; *Ekphrasin philotimias* (Description of Ambition); *Bacchus* or *The Muse*; a description of the Constantian bath; praises of the Emperor Theodosius.
Hellanicus, a Mytilenean, a historian, son of Andromenes or Aristomenes, or of Scamon, for whom he had a son of the same name. He stayed with Herodotus at the court of King Amyntas, during the times of Euripides and Sophocles, and followed Hecataeus of Miletus, who lived during the time of the Persian War and shortly before. (He also wrote a period of the earth and a history.) The former arrived at the times of Perdiccas and died at Perperene, which is in the region of Lesbos. He wrote many things in both prose and metrical language (which Küster in I, p. 708, recounts, or rather adds to those which Vossius had compiled.)
Heniochus, an Athenian, a comic poet of the Middle Comedy. Among his plays are *The Trochilus*, *The Heiress*, *The Gorges*, *The Busybody*, *The Shield*, *Poly-euctus*, *Philetaerus*, *Twice Deceived*. (There was also in our age Poly-euctus, a wicked man, a half-man, hateful to God, irascible, a horrible and pernicious offspring of Cocytus and Styx for human life.)
Hephaestion, an Alexandrian, a grammarian, wrote a *Handbook on Meters* and various *metrika*, or thoughts pertaining to the doctrine of verses; *On things which were perturbed in poems*; *Solutions for dubious comic poets*; and many other things. Also, the dimensions of meters.
Heracleon, an Egyptian, from the town of Tilote, which is subject to Heraclea, a grammarian. He taught at Rome. He wrote a *Commentary on Homer*, according to the order of the rhapsodies. Also *On the Lyrics* and *On Imperative Verbs in Homer*.
A Heraclides, son of Euphron, a philosopher from Heraclea Pontica, traced his lineage to Damis, one of those who led the colony to Heraclea from Thebes. He was a student of Plato and was left by him in Sicily to preside over the school. He raised a snake and always kept it tamed with him, which was even found in his bed when he had gone to lie down feeling well, but was not found afterwards. And so some persuaded themselves that he had become immortal; others, that he had thrown himself into a well so that, having attained immortality, he might appear as such to men. He wrote many things.
Heraclides, Ponticus, from Heraclea, a city of Pontus, a grammarian who heard that famous Didymus of Alexandria. When he had also heard Aper, a student of Aristarchus, who had a famous name at Rome and frequently criticized Didymus, he wrote three books in the Sapphic or Phalaecian meter, difficult to explain and full of many dubious questions, which he inscribed *Atechnas* or *Nugae*. Having brought these to Rome, and professing himself an adversary of Aper, he remained there during the times of Claudius and Nero, and opened a literary school. He also wrote many epic poems.
B Heraclides, Oxyrynchite, a philosopher, son of Serapion, surnamed Lembus, lived under Ptolemy VI, and wrote *The Treaty made with Antiochus*, and also *Philosophica* and other things.
C Heraclides, Lycius, a sophist, composed a book which he inscribed *Niceta Purgatus*, ignorant that he was fitting the spoils of pygmies to a colossus. Conf. Küster’s note 12, vol. II, p. 70.
Heraclitus, son of Blyson (or Bleuton or Horacinus), an Ephesian, a physical philosopher, nicknamed *skoteinos*, or the Obscure. (Confer above under *Dēliou kolymbētou*.) He was no philosopher's student, but cultivated his natural talent by his own industry: yet some hand down that he was a student of Xenophanes or Hippasus the Pythagorean. He lived in the 69th Olympiad, under Darius, son of Hystaspes. He wrote many things in a poetic manner. He despised the body and judged it to be more worthless than dung, and said he could easily satisfy the desires of nature as long as God commanded him to use his body as an instrument. Suffering from dropsy, he did not present himself to doctors to be treated, but exposed his body, smeared with soaking dung, to be dried and baked by the sun. As he lay there, dogs tore him to pieces, or, as others say, it happened that he perished completely buried in the sand.
Heraclius, Emperor of the Romans. He was drawn into the heresy of the Monothelites by Athanasius, patriarch of the Jacobites, and Sergius the Syrian (patriarch of Constantinople), etc.
Heraiscus was of a more divine genius, Asclepiades...
having been nourished for a longer time in the books of the Egyptians, was more skilled in their theology and wisdom. Heraiscus could distinguish between simulacra animated by a Divine Power and those that were empty (as noted above under *diagnomon*); for upon seeing the former, his heart, stirred by the Divine, was pricked. Thus he recognized the ἄῤῥητον ἄγαλμα τοῦ Αἰῶνος, the secret simulacrum of the Aeon, which the Alexandrians worship under the names of Osiris and Adonis at once, according to a mystical theocrasia. When he saw a menstruating woman, his head pained him. When Asclepiades was dead and about to pay the honors due to the priests, and was preparing to cover his body with the τὰς Ὀσίριδος ἐπὶ τῷ σώματι περιβολάς, the vestments of Osiris, suddenly the ἀπόῤῥητα διαγράμματα arcanæ sindonum litteræ, the secret characters of the shrouds, were illuminated on all sides with light, and around him could be seen φαντασμάτων είδη θεοπρεπή, divinely appearing forms of specters. It is said that he issued from his mother’s womb with his finger pressed to his lips as a sign of silence, just as the Egyptians fable that Horus was born, and the Sun before Horus, so that the cutting of the umbilical cord required the finger to be removed. And Heraiscus was Bacchus, as a dream indicated. But Asclepiades was most skilled in the ancestral theology, a proof of which are the Hymns he wrote to the gods of the Egyptians, as well as the work he began to write *On the Consensus of All Religions*. He also wrote a work, *Αἰγυπτίων ἀρχαιολογίων*, concerning the deeds of the most ancient Egyptians and a history comprising a little more than thirty thousand years, etc. Ammonius and the Egyptian Erythraeus contended against each other at Byzantium, etc.
Hercules, son of Alcmena. They report that he was a philosopher, whom they depict clothed in a lion’s skin—that is, in wisdom and constancy—who with the club of philosophy slew the dragon of desire, and took from it three virtues: namely, not to be angered, not to be avaricious, and not to be given to pleasures. Under Minos existed Hercules the Tyrian, who discovered the dye of purple, having bloodied a dog’s jaws with the blood of a shellfish; and he offered it to the Phoenician king, who was the first to wear purple. B
Herennius. Philo of Byblos, surnamed Herennius, as he himself says.
Hermagoras of Amphipolis, a philosopher, a disciple of Persaeus. His dialogues are *Misocyon* ("Hater of Dogs"), *Περὶ ἀτυχημάτων* (*On misfortunes*), and *Ἐκχυτόν*, which is a treatise on the inspection of eggs. *Περὶ σοφιστείας* (*On the Sophistic Art*) against the Academics.
Hermagoras from Temnos, a city of Aeolia, surnamed Carion, a rhetorician, wrote an art of rhetoric in six books, *Περὶ ἐξεργασίας* (*On elaboration*), *Περὶ πρέποντος* (*On decorum*), *Περὶ φράσεως* (*On elocution*), *Περὶ σχημάτων* (*On figures*). Together with Caecilius, he taught this at Rome during the times of Caesar Augustus, and died at an advanced age.
Hermes, an Egyptian sage, flourished before the Pharaoh and was called Trismegistus, because he spoke of the Trinity, saying in the Trinity there is one Godhead. "There was a luminous intellect (nous) toward the intellect, and the intellect was luminous and nothing other than that... and it is the Spirit encompassing all things outside of which is God—not an angel, not another substance," etc. (ex Cyrillo, in Julian).
Hermias, a eunuch, was from Atarnea, a region of Mysia, and ruled over the Hellespont, being subject to the king of the Persians. Since he was a eunuch and a slave of Eubulus, a Bithynian, he was instructed by Aristotle in literature and philosophy, and wrote *On the Soul*, teaching that it is immortal. He is that eunuch, the sold friend of Aristotle, to whom the latter gave his own adopted daughter as a wife. But he himself, even though a eunuch, had a daughter by his wife Pythias. He is written as *Ermias*, and in the iambic verses of Hipponax: "Being a eunuch and slave... Ermias." C
Hermias, a philosopher, father of Ammonius and Heliodorus, masters of Damascus, and an intimate friend of Egypt, most greedy for literature, and of Theodota, who was the mother of Isidore the philosopher. To this Egyptian, while he was dying, he affirmed with an oath that the soul is immortal, which confidence his own integrity of life confirmed. He cultivated philosophy under the great Syrian, with a diligence second to none of his fellow students, and certainly not inferior to them. Although he was τῷ μὲν λόγῳ ἐνδεέστερος, ἢ κατὰ τὴν ἀκρίβειαν, inferior in speech or in precision, and fell short of the perfection of eloquence, he so pursued virtue that not even Momus could reprehend him, nor could envy itself follow him with hatred. There was in him such a zeal for fairness that if he were buying a book, for example, and the seller happened to offer it for less than it was worth, he would give the just price.
Hermippus the Athenian, an ancient writer of comedy, one-eyed, brother of the comic Myrtilus, taught forty fables.
Hermippus the Berytian, from a Mediterranean village, a disciple of Philo of Byblos, by whom he was recommended to Herennius Severus under the emperor Hadrian. Although he was a freedman by birth, he was nevertheless highly learned and wrote much.
Hermogenes of Tarsus, surnamed *Xystos*—you might call him a sharpener: a sophist whom Musonius the philosopher and the emperor Marcus heard, when he was scarcely fifteen years old, marveling at the happiness of his genius and his doctrine, which far exceeded his age. When about eighteen years old, he wrote the *Art of Rhetoric*, which all have in their hands, "A book on the statuses of causes," "Two books on the forms of oratory," and "Two books on Coelesyria." When he reached his twenty-fourth year, his genius failed him and he became utterly unlike himself, without any manifest cause or bodily disease; D whence the saying: *Hermogenes among boys is an old man, and among old men a boy.* Regarding him, Philostratus of Lemnium, etc. With his corpse dissected, his heart is said...
(75) It is proper that the name should be corrupt, or that a younger Hipponax should be understood. For that Hipponax was ancient, long before Hermias.
A Hersilia, a proper name. Regarding her, see Dionysius of Halicarnassus, *Roman Antiquities*, book II.
Hermolaus, a grammarian from Constantinople, wrote an epitome of the grammar of Stephanus, and dedicated it to the Emperor Justinian.
Herodes Julius, son of Atticus, grandson of Plutarch, of the line of the Aeacidae, an Athenian from the township of Marathon, was a sophist. He was very wealthy due to a treasure trove he discovered, so much so that he covered the stadium and theater with a roof for the Athenians. His father governed Asia and twice held the consulship. He lived in the times of the Emperors Trajan, Hadrian, and Marcus Antoninus, and had as his teachers Favorinus and Polemon. He wrote *Ephemerides* [Journals], a work full of varied erudition: also extemporaneous letters and orations, which Philostratus mentions in his *Lives of the Sophists*. B Adrian the Sophist succeeded him in the school. Many other writings of his circulate, from which the magnitude of his genius and the sublimity of his mind can be perceived. He died at about 76 years of age, consumed by phthisis.
Herodianus, an Alexandrian grammarian, son of Apollonius the grammarian, nicknamed Dyscolus. He lived in the times of the Emperor Marcus Antoninus, wherefore he is younger than Dionysius. He wrote a musical history, and one to Philo of Byblos. [Kuster has much to say on his works, ad h. l., tom. II, page 78, n. 8.]
Herodotus, son of Lyxes and Dryo, a Halicarnassian, born to an illustrious family, had a brother named Theodorus. He migrated once on account of Lygdamis, who, after Pisindelis, the father and grandmother [of whom] Artemisia was tyrant of Halicarnassus, was tyrant there. He cultivated the Ionian dialect and wrote his *History* in nine books, beginning from Cyrus the Persian, and Candaules, king of the Lydians. Reverting thereafter to Halicarnassus, he expelled the tyrant, but when he sensed that he was being stung by the envy of the citizens, he voluntarily withdrew to Thurium, whither the Athenians were leading a colony, where he died and was buried in the forum. There are some, however, who say he died at Pella. Regarding Herodotus, the *patharitus* (Julian) says in an epistle: «If to anyone the Thurian trustworthy history-writer seems worthy of belief.»
Heron, son of Cotys, an Athenian rhetorician, who wrote *Causas* [Causes], enacted at Athens. Also an *Exposition* of the orations of Dinarchus: commentaries on Herodotus, Xenophon, Thucydides, [and] *Kekrimenon Onomaton* [Selected Words], in three books. An epitome of the histories of Heraclides; *On Preceding Orators and Orations*, in which they were victorious in competitions. Proclus compared himself to Heron, a pious man who had perfectly prepared himself according to the method of teaching used at Alexandria.
Herophila, who is also the Erythraean Sibyl, daughter of Theodorus. She wrote in heroic verse *biblia g' mantika* [three books of divination], and during the times of the consuls, or (as others hold) of Tarquinius, she came to Rome, hoping it would be of great profit to her. But when she saw that she was being scorned, she burned two of the books: one, however, was preserved, which the Romans redeemed at a great price.
Hesiod, a Cuman, born to Dio and Pycimede, transferred as a youth to Ascra, a city of Boeotia. Dius, son of Ampelides, grandson of Melanopus, who they say was the grandfather of Homer’s grandfather, such that Homer was born from a cousin of Hesiod. They report that the lineage of both descends from Atlas. The poems of Hesiod: *Theogony*, *Works and Days*, *Shield*, *Catalog of Heroic Women* in five books, *Epicedium on Batrachus* (whom he had loved), *On the Idaean Dactyli*, and many others. He died while being entertained as a guest by Antiphus and Ctimenus, who, thinking at night that they were killing the violator of their sister, killed Hesiod against their will. Some make him older than Homer, others his contemporary. Porphyry and very many others say he was one hundred years younger, so that he preceded the first Olympiad by only thirty-two years. Add the notes of Kuster 6 and 7, tom. II, page 80.
*Hesperos*. Parmenides (others say Pythagoras) was the first to realize that the Evening Star and the Morning Star are the same.
Hesychius of Miletus, son of Hesychius the advocate and Sophia, lived in the times of the Emperors Anastasius (and Justinian). He wrote the *Onomatologon* [Name-Book], or *Index of those who were famous in learning*, of which this book [of ours] is an epitome, the *Nomenclator*, or the book of his that is an epitome, the «Index of men who were famous in doctrine.» Also a *Chronicle History*, which he distinguished into six diastemata (for that is what he calls each individual book). In these books are contained the history of the Roman emperors, their deeds at various times, and the history of kings and princes who ruled individual nations; also those things which were done at Byzantium down to the empire of Anastasius, nicknamed Dicorus. In his *Index* he makes no mention of ecclesiastical doctors who were famous for their learning, so that from this it might be suspected that he was not a Christian, but devoted to the trifles and vain studies of the heathens.
Hierocles, an Alexandrian philosopher, excellent in genius and power of speech, whose disciple, Eusebius, used to say that Hierocles once, while teaching, remarked that the sayings of Socrates are like dice, in that they always stand upright, no matter how they fall. The manly and great spirit of Hierocles was demonstrated by his adversity. For when he had traveled to Byzantium and offended the Christians, in whom the supreme power resided, he was led into judgment and, having been struck with scourges, he caught the blood that flowed from him in his cupped hand, and with it sprinkled the judge, saying: *Kuklops tē, pie oinon, epei phages androphagon krea* (Odyssey IX, 347). «Here, Cyclops; drink wine, since you have eaten man-eating flesh.» Returning thence after his exile to Alexandria, he continued to expose philosophy to his disciples in his accustomed manner. The sublimity of his mind can be perceived from the commentaries which he wrote on the *Golden Verses of Pythagoras*, and many other books *On Providence*, from which it appears that the man was indeed of an exalted spirit, but endowed with less accurate knowledge.
Hieronymus, a tyrant, concerning whose death those who have written history have said many words...
A so that neither Phalaris, nor Apollodorus, nor any other tyrant was more cruel than he, etc.
Hieronymus of Cardia, who wrote the history of the events at Alexandria (the things done under Alexander; Kuster reads "the things done by Alexander", the deeds of Alexander the Great). Cardia is the name of a city (in the Thracian Chersonese).
Hilarius, a Phrygian, lived under Emperor Jovian; a man not indeed famous for learning, but it seemed good to God to impart to him foreknowledge of future things. Thus he was a most excellent prophet.
Himerius, son of the rhetorician Aminias, from Prusiade, a city of Bithynia, a sophist; he lived in the times of Emperor Julian and was a rival of Proaeresius at Athens, and lost his eyes in old age. He wrote Declamations.
Hipparchia, sister of Metrocles the Cynic, a Maronite, a Cynic philosopher, wife of the Cynic Crates, who was an Athenian, a disciple of Bryson of Achaia, or, as others report, of Diogenes. She wrote certain philosophical works, as well as some arguments and questions to Theodorus the atheist. She flourished in the 111th Olympiad. (Compare what Suidas says under the entry "Ipa.")
Hipparchion, a mute. There were two cithara-players, Hipparchion and Rufinus. But when the contest pressed, Hipparchion stood mute.
Hipparchus, a comic poet of the ancient comedy. His dramas are on the subject of weddings.
Hipparchus, a Stagirite, a philosopher, a disciple and kinsman of Aristotle. He wrote on the masculine and feminine sex and the weddings of the gods, and certain other things.
Hipparchus, of Nicaea, a philosopher who lived under the consuls. He wrote *On the Phenomena of Aratus*, *On the Constitution and Station of the Fixed Stars*, *On the Monthly Motion of the Moon according to Latitude*, and *On Asterisms*. [The emendation "In asterismos" is plausible. In the text of Suidas it reads "Eis tous aplotous," which reading Kuster rightly thought faulty, but he did not discover how it could be corrected.]
Hippas, the equestrian order. Solon, who wrote the laws for the Athenians, divided their entire multitude into four classes, etc.
Hippias, son of Diopithis, of Elea, a sophist and philosopher, a disciple of Hegesidamus, who posited self-sufficiency (*autarkeia*) as the highest good. He wrote many things. This is a different person from Hippias, the Athenian tyrant, about whom Suidas writes much.
Hippobotus, a philosopher, who said that there were nine sects of philosophers. See above under "Heresy."
Hippocrates, son of Gnosidicus, of Cos, father of Heraclides, the famous grandfather of Hippocrates, a physician himself from the family of the Asclepiadae. He wrote on the art of medicine.
Hippocrates, of Cos, physician, son of Heraclides, grandson of the aforementioned Hippocrates; he is preferred to his grandfather, a certain star and light of medicine, than which nothing is more useful for life. Of the posterity of Chrysippus and his son Elaphus, who also were physicians. He was a disciple first of his father, later of Herodicus of Selymbria and Gorgias, the orator and philosopher. They also say that the youth had approached Democritus of Abdera, while others say he heard Prodicus. He lived B in Macedonia, where he was highly esteemed by King Perdiccas; having left two sons, Thessalus and Dracon, he died in the 104th year of his age and was buried in Larissa in Thessaly. In his statues and images his head is seen covered with a mantle: either because he was a stranger by reason of his study of travel, or because he was accustomed to perform surgery. He wrote many things and became famous among all, so much so that the great King of the Persians, Artaxerxes, by letters sent to Hystanes, sought the wisdom of this man. "King the great Artaxerxes," etc. The books of Hippocrates are most well known to all students of medicine, whom they revere as divine oracles, "as the voices of God and not proceeding from the mouth of a man." The first is *The Oath*, the second *Predictions*, the third is *Aphorisms* (surpassing human understanding, "that which surpasses human genius"). The fourth place holds that most famous and admirable work of sixty books or the *Hexacontabiblos*, which contains all medical knowledge and wisdom.
Hippocrates, son of Thessalus, of Cos, physician, grandson of Hippocrates the second, son of Heraclides. He also wrote on medicine.
Hippocrates, son of Draco, of Cos, physician, grandson of the same Hippocrates the second, who treated Roxane and lived under Cassander, son of Antipater. He also wrote on medicine.
Hippocrates, the fifth and sixth, both physicians, sons of Thymbraeus, also of Cos, and of the same family. Both wrote on the same science.
Hippocrates, the seventh, of Cos, also a physician, son of Praxianax, of the same family. He also wrote on the same art.
Hippolytus. This man wrote a commentary on Daniel and on the Proverbs of Solomon. I shall imitate Hippolytus, concerning those who profess chastity.
Hipponax, son of Pytheus and Procris, of Ephesus, a writer of iambic verse, who lived at Clazomenae, driven out by the tyrants Athenagoras and Comas. He wrote against Bupalus and Athenis, the sculptors, because they had let loose images for the sake of mockery and insult. He was also the first who wrote parody and choliambics, and other things. [V. Kuster, vol. II, p. 148, note 4, who rightly returned the passage of Suidas—badly transposed concerning the author of the parody and the choliambics—to its own place and restored the invention to its author.]
Hippys, of Rhegium, a historian, who lived during the time of the Persian wars and was the first to write *Sicilian Affairs*, which afterwards Myes reduced into a compendium. He wrote *Origins of Italy*, *Five Books of Sicilian Affairs*, *Five Books of the Chthonica*, and *Three Books of Argolica*.
*Historicai*. See above under "Hecataeus," where the same things are read regarding Hecataeus, Pherecydes, and Acusilaus.
Homeridae, who recited the verses of Homer. Some say this family took its name from the poet Homer. Others [say they were] the posterity of the Chians, who during the Bacchanalia, having accepted the pledges or hostages given between them, rested from battle and fury.
A *Homeric word*. "I use the words of Homer." About Homer, the poet, his race, fatherland, age, etc., many things are read in Suidas and the notes of Kuster upon him, vol. II, p. 628 et seqq., who also mentions his Life, written by the historian Herodotus, and recites a long passage therefrom. Furthermore, he records regarding his works: The poems of Homer, which are called into doubt by no one, are the *Iliad* and the *Odyssey*. He did not write the *Iliad* all at once, nor in a continuous series, as it is now composed, but he recited the individual books as he wrote them, and left them in the cities which he visited for the sake of obtaining his livelihood. Later, they were composed and arranged in order by many, but especially by Pisistratus, the Athenian tyrant. Certain other poems are also attributed to Homer, such as: *Amazonia*, *Ilias Minor*, *Nostoi*, *Epicichlides* (or *Thrushes*), *Hetiépactos* (Bentley reads *Heptapacton*), *Iambi*, *Of Frogs and Mice*, *Arachnomachia* (or *Battle of the Spiders*), *Ceropes*, *Amphiaraus*, *Exelesis* (or *the Expedition*), *Palaeotaxia* (or *Ludicra and Jests*), *The Conquest of Sicily*, *Epithalamia*, *Cycle* (or *Cyclic Poem*), *Hymns*, and *Cypria*. B Below these, he adds from Herodotus: *Cercopes* and *Batrachomachia* (or *Battle of the Starlings*); and he brings forward an entire *Caminus* (Oven) and other short miscellaneous poems of Homer. The sons of Homer were Eriphon and Theolaus; others [cite] Stasinus, Cyprius, etc.
Homer, of Andromachus and Myrus, a Byzantine, a grammarian and tragic poet, one of the Pleiad. He flourished in the 124th Olympiad. He wrote XLV tragedies.
Homer, surnamed Sellius, a grammarian, wrote *Hymns*. [He wrote] *Ludicra* of various kinds, in verse: and *Prose* on comic characters and *Arguments* of the comedies of Menander. Infra, *Sellius*.
*Homoeomereia*. The philosopher Anaxagoras said that [something] is inhabited in the moon and that there are hills and valleys in it. He maintained that the principles of things are *Homoeomeries*, or particles, similar to one another, etc.
*Homoloius* (Homolois), Jupiter, worshipped at Thebes and in other cities of Boeotia; and in Thessaly, he has this name from the divining Homoloia, daughter of Eunyeus, of whom they say that she was sent to Delphi, as Aristophanes records in the second book of his *Theban Antiquities*. Ister, however, in the XIIth book of his *Collectanea*, says [it is named] for the sake of peace, which is *homoion* (similar) among the Aeolians (76). And there is a Ceres at Thebes who is called Homoloia.
*Horae*. There is a certain book by Prodicus, inscribed *Horae*, in which he makes Hercules encounter Virtue and Vice; and while each invites him to her own ways, he joined himself to Virtue, and preferred her toils to the fleeting pleasures of Vice, which last for a short time.
Horapollo, from Phaenebythis, a village in the prefecture of Panopolis, a grammarian, famous for his art, and second to none of the most learned of the ancient grammarians; he taught at Alexandria in Egypt, then at Constantinople under the Emperor Theodosius. He wrote *Temenica*, "On temples and sacred places"; a *Commentary on Sophocles*, among Suidas and in Kuster’s notes to him, vol. C "Alcaeus and Homer." He appears to have become a Christian, as Heraiscus had predicted he would, etc.
*Hymnopolos*, one who celebrates others in song. Regarding Aleman, the lyric poet, an epigram: "Many fatherlands of the hymn-singer."
*Todes*. The sons of Hippocrates (distinct from the physician), Telessipus, Demophon, Pericles, who were endowed with swinish manners and an ovine disposition, are stung by the comic poets.
Hypatia, daughter of Theon the geometer, an Alexandrian philosopher, and wife of Isidorus the philosopher, flourished in the times of the Emperor Arcadius. She wrote a "Commentary on the astronomical Canon of Diophantus; on the *Conics* of Apollonius." Born at Alexandria, and educated and learned, in genius more excellent than her father, not satisfied with her paternal training in mathematics, she devoted strenuous effort to the rest of philosophy as well; and, a woman having taken up the philosopher’s cloak, proceeding through the middle of the city, she publicly expounded the writings of Plato or Aristotle or any other philosopher to those who wished to hear her. Hypatia was torn to pieces by the Alexandrians, and her corpse was cast about the city with mockery—a deed which they say happened from the envy of Cyril, or, as others say, because the Alexandrians were by nature bold and prone to sedition. For they treated many of their bishops likewise, such as George and Proterius, etc. The Emperor took the matter most gravely, and would have taken vengeance had not Aedesius corrupted the friends of the emperor. But the emperor, remitting the penalty for the murderers, drew down vengeance upon his own head and his own family. For his grandson paid the penalties. That affair in no way diminished the devotion of the Alexandrians to Isidorus; for even they who presided over the rhetorical and poetic schools loved frequent gatherings of philosophers. My own age, however, knows three critics who can pass judgment on what is said in prose. For it is agreed that the judgment for poems and for prosaic writings is the same; I, however, judge that the same craftsman belongs to both, provided each be exercised with equal study. But I do not count Isidorus among those critics, but consider him far inferior to those three. Indeed, those judges are Agapius, Severianus, Nomus. And our Nomus is his equal. (From Damascius.)
Hyperbolus, a demagogue, whom Thucydides writes in book VIII was relegated by ostracism. He is stung by Aristophanes for being a lover of litigation. See Kuster III, p. 539.
Hyperechius the Alexandrian, a grammarian, in the times of the Emperor Marcian. He wrote "A Grammar; On nouns; On the verb; On orthography."
Hyperides, of Glaucippus, the rhetorician, or, as others say, son of Pythocles, an Athenian, a best demagogue and orator, one of those ten who are considered the leaders. He was a pupil, along with Lycurgus, of Plato the philosopher and Isocrates the rhetorician. Although a friend of Demosthenes, he nevertheless accused him on account of money accepted from Harpalus. He was more addicted to the loves of women. Under
was later abducted by King Antipater, who had him brought from the temple of Ceres, which is at Hermione, by Archias, the seeker after fugitives—who was called A *Phygodatheras*—and ordered his tongue to be cut out. His son was Glaucippus, who buried him in his ancestral tomb. All his orations are fifty-six. *Hyrrhae filius*, that is, Hyrrhae’s son, was Pittacus; he is also called the Lesbian.
I. *Iacchus*, a hymn to Bacchus. So they sing: "The Iacchus, as Diagoras [did]." They say this Diagoras was an atheist. And there was another, Terthrei’s son, who, on account of the size of his body, was censured, as Hermippus tells in *Metra*. Iadmon, the Samian son of Iadmon, to whom belonged Rhodopis, the harlot of Thracian descent, whom Charaxus, Sappho’s brother, married and had children by her when she was freed. Iachen, an Egyptian, endowed with unique gifts by God, lived under Senis, king of the Egyptians. He was skilled in amulets and incantations; he extinguished the pestilences that were raging and, at the first rising of the Dog Star, mitigated the heat and the influence of that star, for which reason he was honored with a magnificent funeral. And whenever an epidemic disease would break out, they would go to the sacred scribe B or to the temple, and perform the sacred rites; from the altar they would light his fire, and, once it was carried about the city, they would extinguish the fatal plague with the foul air produced, thereby repelling the disease through this new method, that is, fire. Ialemus, the ill-fated son of Calliope, etc. Iambe, a proper noun for a female, concerning whom see Kuster II, page 89, note 7, where he cites it. *Iambizein*, meaning "to assail with invectives," etc. Ibycus, the son of Phytias, the Messenian historian, or son of Cerdantis, of Rhegian descent. Thence he migrated to Sannium, when Polycrates, the tyrant’s father, was ruling; in the LIVth Olympiad, during the time of Croesus, he invented the sambuca—called *Ibycin* after him—a type of triangular C cithara. He wrote seven books in the Doric dialect. His saying [is]: "One ought not to offend the gods, that you might thence obtain favor from men." He said that cranes would be the avengers of him who was about to be killed by robbers, which the event proved: hence the proverb, "Ibycus' cranes." Icthys [The Fish], the reader of Mithridates, wrote a book on Helena, in which he says that a certain fish of the cetacean genus is called *pāna*, and that in it is found an *asterite* stone, which is ignited by the sun and is useful for love charms. Idaeus, the Rhodian, son of Lissas, an epic poet, who, by inserting another verse after every single verse, made Homer’s poem twice as long. He wrote other things as well, such as *Rhodia* in three thousand hexameter verses.
(77) How false this narrative of Suidas is—that Ion wrote about meteors and *synthetous logous*—the scholiast on Aristophanes' *Peace* proves, having misunderstood the words; [this is discussed by] Kuster on Suidas, vol. II, page 135, from Bentley’s *Epistola ad Millium*. Against this, the sense of the scholiast is that... D *Hieratica*, or priestly science, differs from philosophy; it consists in the worship of the gods and begins from the causes governing the world, and occupies itself with these, and considers the nature of the immortality of souls and the infinite states of the dead who are assigned to [them] for individual virtues and vices, and the various migrations of souls during life. Its authors were the Egyptians, from whom the Pythagoreans transferred everything to the Greeks. *Iesous* [Jesus]. The Colloquium of Philip, a Christian, with Theodosius, a leader of the Jews, held in the times of Justinian, in which he professes that the Jews, in a secret codex stored at Tiberias, found written that Jesus was the Son of God, born of the Virgin Mary, and that he was once admitted among the priests; Josephus also clearly says in his *Commentaries on the Jewish War* that Jesus performed [rites] in the temple with the priests. I have spoken of that narrative in the apocryphal codex of the New Testament, page 371, and vol. II, page 547: but as to what pertains to the codex stored at Tiberias, see S. Epiphanius, *Haeresis* 30, page 133. Ignatius, deacon and keeper of the vessels of the Great Church and metropolitan of Nicaea, grammarian. He wrote the *Lives of Tarasius and Nicephorus*, [lives] of martyrs and blessed patriarchs; funeral elegies; *lambics* on Thomas Antartas, and many other things. Ilion, a city of Phrygia. In the time of the Argonauts, the Sibyl Erythraea prophesied among the Greeks: but in Phrygia, Tros, Ilus, and the father of Ganymede, reigned; Ilium was named after the former, and Ilus founded it for his sons. *Ei me dynaito*. Theognis was tragic, cold, whom Aristophanes, censuring him, says had "snowed over all of Thrace, and frozen the rivers." Ion, of Chios, tragic, lyric, and philosopher, son of Orthomenes [son of] Xuthus, began to teach tragedies in the LXXXII Olympiad. He wrote thirty, or, according to others, one hundred, or forty, plays. He also wrote *On Meteors* (77) and *Synthetous Logoi* (above, in the *Dithyrambidaskaloi*). Aristophanes mocks him by calling him *Eos* ("the morning star"). Iophon, the Athenian, a tragic poet, son of the tragic [poet Sophocles], by Nicostrata. He was also a bastard son of his, Ariston, by Theoderis, of Syconia. Iophon taught fifty plays, in the number of which are [the] *Achilles, Telephus, Actaeon, Iliou Persis, Dexamenus, Bacchae, Pentheus*, and certain other [plays] of his father Sophocles. Iphicrates, son of a cobbler, an Athenian orator and leader in war, who was the first to mention the general in an inscription upon spoils, when previously only the name of the city was inscribed. Irenaeus (in the Latin tongue, Pacatus), a disciple of Heliodorus, the metrician, an Alexandrian grammarian, wrote against the dithyrambic poets for their love of the translation of words, from *meteora*, from "the stars" and "the clouds" and other things which occur in the sublime; he liked also to use sesquipedalian words and compounds. HARL.
INDEX OF WRITERS
A *De Athenien-sium* rite of escorting or following someone with honor. On the Alexandrian dialect, that it was derived from Attica, in seven books. On Attic nouns, in three books. On the usage of Attic speech in diction and accent, in alphabetical order, in three books. On the rules of Attic Greek, in one book. On Atticisms, in one book, and many others.
Isaeus, one of the ten orators, a disciple of Isocrates and master of Demosthenes, Athenian by birth. Demetrius, however, says he was a Chalcidean. He is praised as an orator, and because he trained Demosthenes without a fee. Being licentious in his youth, he later returned to a better path. Therefore, being asked by someone what kind of fish or bird was most delicious to eat, "I have ceased," he said, "to study such things, B since I understood that I was harvesting the gardens of Tantalus," that is to say, all pleasures are like shadows and dreams.
Ischander, a tragic actor.
Isidorus, an old man, of Pelusium, a most illustrious man, philosopher and orator. He wrote three thousand letters, in which he interprets Holy Scripture.
Isidorus, a philosopher, who, after his brothers, if any other did exercise himself philosophically in the disciplines and was very studious of sacred matters, lived a life of a philosopher, but in science was not sufficiently cultivated, and in dialectics was more unexercised than dull. A strange thing happened to this youth: for his peer, and son of his sister, eighteen years old, having shown from his early age a divine strength of character, fell from a roof and suddenly ended his life. All therefore following him with great mourning, he himself came to Isidorus in a dream and consoled him.
C *Eis latomias* (To the quarries). Philoxenus, a dithyrambic poet, because he could not bear the poems of the tyrant Dionysius, being bad, was cast by him into the quarries. Later released by the prayers of his friends, and hearing those [poems] again, he arose, saying that it were better to be in the quarries than to hear his poems, adding the saying: *Oikos philos, oikos aristos* (house beloved, house supreme), which refers to a tortoise (testudo).
Isocrates, son of Theodorus, a flute-maker, Athenian, orator, born in the LXXXVI Olympiad, that is, after the Peloponnesian War. Because of the weakness of his voice and his bashfulness in public speaking, he did not plead causes, but he taught many. He wrote XXXII orations, and died at the age of CVI. His brothers were Tisippus, Theomnestus, and Theodorus; his teacher was Gorgias; others say Tisias, Erginus, or Prodicus; others finally say Theramenes. His orations are very numerous.
Isocrates, son of Amyclas, a philosopher, born at Apollonia in Pontus, or Heraclea, as the orator Callistratus writes; a disciple and successor of Isocrates the Great, and D a hearer of Plato. He, along with Theodectes, an orator and tragic poet, and Theopompus of Chios, and likewise the Erythraean Naucratis, contended regarding eloquence at the funeral of Mausolus of Caria, king of Halicarnassus. His orations are five: *Amphictyonia, Hortatoria, That a monument should not be built for Philip; On migration; On his own republic.*
Ister, son of Menander Ister, of Cyrene or Macedonia, a historian, a slave and disciple of Callimachus. Hermippus, however, says he was a Paphian in his second book *De servis, qui eruditione clari fuerunt* (On slaves who were famous for their learning). He wrote many things in both prose and verse.
Jacob, son of the physician Hesychius, surnamed *Psychrotes*, from the province of Damascus, who practiced medicine at Constantinople under the Emperor Leo, so excellently that he was called *sōtēr* (savior) by many, as Aesculapius once was, and he appeared to have *Asklēpiadikēn psychēn kai physin Paiōnion* (an Asclepiadic soul and a Paeonian nature). Thus also Phidias, *enthousiōnta dēmiourgein* (working while possessed by a divine spirit), is said to have made his statues, and Zeuxis to have painted his images, etc. (From Damascius.)
Jacob died having drunk poison under Valens, persuaded by Libanius the sophist, because he had inquired who would succeed Valens in the empire. See the note of Kuster, vol. II, p. 88 seq.
Jamblichus, a freedman, wrote *Babyloniaca* or the loves of Rhodinis and Sinonidis in XXXIX books. This work deals with Zobaras, an eunuch, and his love for the most beautiful woman of Mesopotamia.
Jamblichus the second, from Chalcis in Syria, a philosopher, a disciple of Porphyry, who was a hearer of Plotinus. He lived in the times of the Emperor Constantine. He wrote various philosophical books.
Jason, son of Menecrates, a Nysaean by his father, and from Rhodes by his mother, a philosopher, a disciple and grandson by a daughter and successor of the philosopher Posidonius, in the school that was at Rhodes. He wrote *Lives of Illustrious Men* and *Successions of Philosophers* and, according to some, *IV books on the life of Greece*. He also wrote *On Rhodes*.
Jason the Argive, a historian, younger than Plutarch of Chaeronea, a grammarian, wrote four books *On Greece*, which contain the early history of Greece and the history of the Persians and the deeds done by Alexander up to his death and that time in which Athens was captured by Antipater, the father of Cassander.
John, the theologian and evangelist, returned from exile in Patmos in the hundredth year of his age and wrote the Gospel, and then reached the age of CXX. Living there, he wrote the theology (that is, the Gospel). Chrysostom considers his three epistles and the Apocalypse as canonical.
John Chrysostom, of Antioch, at the beginning a presbyter of Antioch, and a follower of Eusebius of Emesa, the philosopher, and Diodorus. He is said to have written many things.
A in which his Sermons on the priesthood excel, for their sublimity of expression and the sweetness and elegance of their language; these are rivaled by his Sermons on the Psalms and his Commentaries on the Gospel of John, on Matthew, Mark, and Luke. His other writings, however, exceed them in number; he explained the entire Hebrew and Christian Scripture with commentaries, as no one else has. He also delivered many orations in praise of the martyrs, promptly and impromptu, for he possessed such an abundance of eloquence that it surpassed the cataracts of the Nile. Indeed, no mortal of any age has had such a wealth of speech, to such an extent that he alone deservedly attained that golden and divine name. To recount the number of his works is not the task of a man, but of God, who knows all things. St. John lived a most B ascetic life, etc.
John, grammarian, an Alexandrian, surnamed Philoponus. He has many writings: grammatical, philosophical, arithmetical, rhetorical, and on the Holy Scriptures, and against Proclus on the eternity of the world, and against Severus. However, he is rejected by the doctors of the Church and is not admitted into the catalog of the orthodox.
John, of Philadelphia, the Lydian. He wrote one book *On the Months* and another *On the Diosemeia*, or the signification of storms, and other mathematical works. He dedicated these to Gabriel, the prefect.
John, surnamed Stobaeus, wrote the *Florilegium*, encompassing various maxims in four books; a work which is excellent and full of varied doctrine, to Epimius, his son.
John, Damascene, surnamed Mansour, a man who was also eminent in his own time, and second to none of them, since he was a man of illustrious doctrine. His writings are numerous and primarily philosophical, and in the Holy Scriptures, the *Select Parallels* and the *Canons of the Sacred Canticles*, composed in iambics as well as in prose. At the same time, Cosmas of Jerusalem flourished, a most ingenious man, and breathing all musical harmony. But those who compare the canticles of John and Cosmas with the writings of others do not admire them, nor do they admit them, as long as the memory of men lasts.
Jobates, the father of Sthenoboea, to whom Proetus gave letters for the killing of Bellerophon.
Jobus. You have the rewards of this philosopher. You also have his book, where the Homeric and Platonic Muse sings more sweetly of what is not alien to fables or to the narration of calamities, or recounts the most audacious Achilles, or the most cunning Ulysses, by whom triumphs of slaughter and the defilement of women are produced; but he describes Satan as overcome by a naked child and by him alone, etc.
Josephus, the Jew, *philalēthēs* (lover of truth), speaks of John the Baptist, the Forerunner, and of our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ. He was the son of Mattathias, a priest of Jerusalem. Taken by Vespasian A and his son Titus, he remained among them until the conquest of Jerusalem, and proceeding to Rome with them, he offered to the emperors his seven books *On the Destruction of Jerusalem*, which were deposited in the public library, and for the fame of his writings he was honored with a statue. He also wrote twenty books of *Jewish Antiquities*, from the beginning of the world until the fourteenth year of the Emperor Domitian. Likewise, two other books of *Antiquities against Apion*, a grammarian of Alexandria, who had been sent under Caligula by the gentiles as an envoy to accuse Philo with a certain oration, which contains the indictment of the Jewish nation. There is another book of his which is entirely excellent, *On the Sovereignty of Reason*, in which he makes mention of the martyrdom of the Maccabees. In this book, and in the eighteenth book of the *Antiquities*, he openly confesses that, because of the multitude of miracles, Christ was put to death by the Jews, and that John the Baptist was a true prophet, and that Jerusalem was destroyed because of the murder of the apostle James. He writes thus concerning our Lord Jesus Christ: "At that time there existed Jesus, a wise man," etc. (Josephus, *Antiq.* XVIII, 4). This same man prophesied that Vespasian would hold the empire (Josephus, *Bell. Jud.* III, 14).
Jovian, Emperor of the Romans, an orthodox man, who showed great care for the churches and recalled all the bishops from exile. He also received from St. Athanasius a precise formula of the faith, committed to writing, to share with him. He sent the letter, full of orthodox doctrine, to him. The Persians proscribed this Jovian because of the hymns and famous libels transmitted to Nisibis. Likewise, Jovian, urged by his wife, built a most beautiful temple for the memory of his father, Trajan, which Julian later, having made it into a library, burned with all its books together with a certain eunuch, Theophilus, throwing the skins themselves into the fire with a laugh. But the people of Antioch, incensed with indignation against the emperor, partly cast the famous libels upon the ground, so that they could be picked up and read by anyone, and partly affixed them to the walls, etc. Under Jovian, Acacius, bishop of Caesarea in Palestine, lived, who wrote a libellous work *On the Orthodox Faith*, in which he assents to the Synod of Nicaea.
Juba, king of Libya and Mauretania, whom the Romans took captive and led in a triumph having been scourged with rods, but did not kill him on account of his scholarship. He lived in the time of Augustus Caesar, and he married Selene, the daughter of Cleopatra, whom she had borne to C. Caesar. He wrote many things. In the same time flourished Didymus, called Chalcenterus, who wrote much against him.
Julian, the Chaldean, a philosopher, father of Julian the theurgist. He wrote four books *On Demons*, which work teaches the ways of repelling evils from men and all their parts; such are the D *Chaldaean Oracles*.
Julian, son of the aforementioned, lived in the time of the Emperor M. Antoninus. He also wrote *Theurgica*; *Teleastika* regarding the ways of consecrating things magically (V. Kusteri, note 7).
A They also hand down that he, causing it to rain for the Romans when they were once laboring under thirst, by the sudden gathering of clouds, poured down a great rain with frequent thunder and lightning, and that Julian accomplished this by some wisdom. Others hand down that the Egyptian philosopher Arnuphis performed this miracle.
Julian, son of Domnus, of Caesarea in Cappadocia, a sophist, a contemporary of the sophist Callinicus. He lived under the Roman Emperor.
Julian of Halicarnassus, who wanted to renew the heresy of Severus, and for this purpose had already sent Marinus to the East, intending to confirm that dogma in the city of Carrhae, had he not died shortly thereafter, etc.
Julian, ὁ παραβάτης καὶ ἀποστάτης (the transgressor and apostate), a deserter and apostate from the Roman Empire, born of Dalmatius, the brother of Constantine the Great, and Galla. He wrote a book which is called *Caesares*, containing all the emperors from Augustus. Another [work], *Περὶ τῶν τριῶν σχημάτων* (On the three figures), and *Κρόνια* (*Saturnalia*). The same [wrote] *Misopogon* or *Antiochicus*. And *Πόθεν κακά, κατὰ ἀπαιδεύτων* (*Whence come evils, against the uneducated*); on the dog Heraclitus, [*On how one ought to live like a Cynic*]; epistles of every kind, and other things. Suidas also cites a passage from Julian concerning Empedotimus in *Ἐμπεδότιμος*. The oracle given to Julian is different from the two that Suidas recites; it is read in Cedrenus, page 253.
Paulus, of the monastery of Callistratus, predicted that Leontius, who succeeded Justinian Rhinotmetus, and the duke of the East, and Gregorius Cappadox, prefect of the monastery of Florus, would attain the empire, which also happened later (Confer Nicophorus, *Breviarium historicum*, page 25).
Justinus, a philosopher, and in the habit of philosophers, of the province of Neapolis in Palestine, son of Priscus, grandson of Bacchius. He labored much for the Christian religion and presented a book *Against the Heathen* to Antoninus Pius and his sons, not blushing at the reproach of the Cross. He wrote another book, which he presented to the successors of Antoninus (Pius), M. Antoninus and L. Aurelius Commodus. There exists another book of his against the heathen, in which he discourses *On the Nature of Demons*, and a fourth likewise against the heathen, which he entitled *Elenchus*. And another *On the Monarchy of God*. Also another, which he names *Psalten*. And *On the Soul*. Also a *Dialogue against the Jews*, which he wrote to Trypho, a prince of the Ephesian Jews. Furthermore, he published writings *Against Marcion*. Also another book *Against all sects*, of which mention is made in the *Apologeticus* which he presented to Antoninus Pius. Having stayed in Rome, he D afflicted Crescens, a foolish Cynic who was pouring out insults against the Christians, with great shame, by calling him a glutton, a prodigal, and intemperate, and fearful of death. Finally, through his machinations and snares, it was brought about that he was punished as a Christian for Christ.
Justinus, Roman Emperor, ὀρθόδοξος (orthodox), but ignorant of letters of every kind and what is commonly called ἀναλφάβητος (illiterate).
Justus, of Tiberias, from the province of Galilee, who himself also attempted to write a Jewish history and to compose certain commentaries. But Josephus convicts him of lying. He wrote [his] history at the same time as Josephus.
Juvenalis, a Latin poet. He lived under Domitian the Roman Emperor. But Domitian loved a dancer of the Green faction who was called Paris. For this reason, he was criticized by the Senate and by Juvenalis. Because of this, the Emperor relegated Juvenalis to the Pentapolis of Africa; but he sent the enriched dancer to Antioch, who, having built a house and bath outside the city, died there.
L Lachares, son of Lacharis, an Athenian, a sophist, a disciple of Heracleon the Athenian sophist, a master both of many others and of those who are considered bright above the rest, Eustephius, Nicolaus, and Asterius. He flourished in the times of the emperors Marcian and Leo. He wrote *On the comma and period*, *Διαλέξεις* (*Dissertations*), *His- toriam Cornuti* (*History of Cornutus*), *Rhetorical Eclogues* according to the order of the alphabet. Lachares, a sophist slower in the disciplines, but endowed with a liberal and honest appearance, and to be called a philosopher in virtue rather than a sophist, who recovered his lost sight, because he was otherwise dear to God. Confer below, *Superianus*.
Lacydes, son of Alexander of Cyrene, a philosopher, who was the founder of the New Academy. He wrote *Philosophica*, also *On Nature*.
"Lampon swears by the goose, when he deceives someone." Lampon was an augur and prophet, whom some also say was the leader of the colony sent by the Athenians to Sybaris. He swore, however, by the goose, as a bird skilled in divination. Above, *χῆνα ὀμνύναι*.
Lamprias, son of Plutarch of Chaeronea, compiled an Index of the works that his father wrote on all Greek and Roman History.
Lasus, son of Charminus, from Hermione, a city of Achaia, lived in the 58th Olympiad, during the reign of Darius, son of Hystaspes. Some count him among the seven wise men in the place of Periander. He was the first to write *On Music*; and he introduced competition with the dithyramb and τοὺς ἐριστικοὺς εἰσηγήσατο λόγους (*he introduced the contentious style of speaking*) into use.
Λῆμα. Aristophanes concerning Euripides and Aeschylus: Λῆμα δ' οὐκ ἄτολμον ἀμφοῖν, etc. (*Ranis*, page 254).
A Ἀήμματα, prophecies, or even apophthegms, produced according to the inclination of our own mind.
Leo, son of Leo, a Byzantine Peripatetic philosopher and sophist, a disciple of Plato, or as some say, of Aristotle. He wrote *Res Philippicae* (*Philippic History*) and *Byzantina* in eight books; *Teuthranicum* regarding the war; *De statibus*; *Res gestae Alexandri* (*Deeds of Alexander*). This man, being sent as an ambassador to Athens, because he was quite obese, stirred the Athenians to laughter. "But," he says, "if you had given Leo as much money as he asked of me, he would have captured Byzantium immediately." Veritus, therefore, being pelted by the citizens with stones, he hanged himself, poor man. Cf. Kuster, vol. II, p. 45.
Leo Alabandensis, an orator, wrote *Carica* in four books; *Lycia* in two books; *Ars rhetorica* (*Art of Rhetoric*); *De statibus causarum*; *Bellum sacrum* (*Sacred War*) and *Phocensia et Baeotica*.
Leo Macelles, Emperor of the Romans, according to Malchus, a B πάσης κακίας καταγώγιον, a refuge of every wickedness, committed a transgression. When he ordered a salary given to Eulogius the philosopher, and a certain eunuch spent this money on soldiers: "Would that," he said, "it might happen in my time that the soldiers' salaries be conferred upon teachers?" In his time lived Acacius the patriarch.
Leogoras, father of Andocides the orator.
Leonas, a sophist, an Isaurian by nation, famous among the professors of the same art in Alexandria, who did not only make Proclus a participant in his erudition, but also welcomed him as a companion, and ordered him to live so familiarly with his own children as if he were a true son. He achieved this, so that he became famous as a prince in Egypt.
Leontius, Bishop of Tripolis in Lydia in the time of Constantius, whom Philostorgius praises as a supporter of the Arian madness. Κανονῶν δ’ αὐτὸν ἐκάλουν τῆς Ἐκκλησίας, they called him the Rule of the Church.
Leontius, Bishop of Antioch, executed himself, a man otherwise also profane: for he was a master to Aetius and Eunomius, and aided their Arian blasphemies.
Leontius, and this heretic of Antioch, against whom Photius the patriarch wrote. He disputed about the consubstantiality with Flavian, uttering acts of audacity and blasphemy, etc.
Leontius, a monk, lived under Zeno. This man, with the gift of prophecy, declared obscure passages of Scripture, and had many good disciples who frequently came to him, etc.
Lesbonax, of Mytilene, a philosopher, who lived in the time of Augustus, father of Potamon the philosopher. He wrote very many philosophical books.
C Λέσχαι: Cleanthes says, Leschae are those dedicated to Apollo, and hence called *leschnios*. Also *leschai* are called poems of Heraclides Ponticus, written in the Phalaecian or Sapphic meter. Lesche, seats or places where men were accustomed to gather for the sake of discussing philosophical matters. Thus Herocles in the first book of the *Philopseumen*.
Leschides, an epic poet, companion of King Eumenes in military expeditions, most famous of poets. This custom was also used by Pythias, a historian, and Menander, a physician.
Leucon, of Agnus, lived in Peloponnesian times. Of his plays there are: *Onos* (*The Ass*), *Askophoros*, *Phratores*.
Libanius, of Antioch, a sophist, famous in the times of Julian the Apostate, lived until Theodosius the Great, son of Phasganius, disciple of Diophantus. He wrote infinite works, and among them *Encomium of Constantius* and another of Julian; *Declamationes rhetoricae*; *Epistolas*. In the same time were Basil and Gregory (Naz.). Julian, however, although occupied with many D negotiations, yet diligently devoted effort to letters, and wished to appear excellent in them, and admired the sophist from Antioch, Libanius, and adorned him with praises; and because he found it difficult to act against Proaeresius the great sophist, he used to defer to him. Acacius, therefore, the sophist, very skilled in speaking, and a Tuscan, a Phrygian, therefore always blamed him, and disapproved of his judgment.
Linus, of Chalcis, son of Apollo and Terpsichore, or as others say, of Amphimarus and Urania, or Urania and Mercury. This man is said to have been the first to have brought letters from Phoenicia into Greece, to have taught Hercules letters, and to have been the first author of lyric song.
Linus the second, of Thebes, the younger, a philosopher.
Linus, a genus of hymn, as a paean. Cf. Kuster, p. 449, note 3.

Λόγια, oracles, which are conceived by speech, χρῆσμοι, in verses.
Λογογράφος, a writer of judicial orations. Λογοποιός is used for a historian by Isocrates and Herodotus. Thus also the inventor of fables and apologues is called.
Lollianus, of Ephesus, a sophist, disciple of Isaeus of Assyria, lived in the times of Hadrian Caesar and wrote much.
Longinus Cassius, a philosopher, master of Porphyry the philosopher, gifted with great learning and acute judgment. He lived under Emperor Aurelian and was killed by him, because he had conspired with Zenobia, the wife of Odenathus. He wrote *On oratory against Phidias*; *Dubitationes Homericae*; *Whether Homer was a philosopher?*; *Problemata Homerica* and *Solutiones* in two books; *What things are against the faith of history as related by grammarians*; *On words having many significations*, in four books; Attico-
- A editions of words in two books, arranged according to the order of letters; the little word of Antimachus and Heracleo, and many other things.
Luke, the Evangelist, has LXXXIII titles, in CXLVIII chapters.
Lucian of Samosata bore the nickname *Blasphemous* or *Evil-speaker*, or rather *Atheist*, because in his Dialogues he attacks those things which are said about the gods as if they were ridiculous. He is thought to have lived under the Emperor Trajan and before him. He was first a lawyer in Syria, and when this did not turn out well for him, he turned himself to writing and wrote infinite things. The impious man is said to have been torn apart by dogs. He was one who, with the madness of his own tongue, attacked the truth itself. For in his *Life of Peregrinus* he mocks the Christian religion, and, being a most wicked man, he blasphemes Christ Himself. B Therefore, he paid just penalties for his madness in this life, and in the future he will be the inheritance of eternal fire with Satan.
Lucian, martyr, a noble man, in his early life followed the custom of the interpreter of the Holy Scriptures, and then turned his mind to the solitary life. From this point he progressed to the priesthood, and having been made a presbyter at Antioch, he established a great school there. When he noticed that many adulterations had crept into the Holy Scriptures, both through long time and frequent transcription, and because certain profane men had dared to pervert some things, he restored them all to their entirety from the Hebrew language, which he knew accurately, and contributed great labor to their correction, etc. He also published letters, which are truly most excellent, from which it is easily evident what the opinion of this man was regarding divine matters. He met his martyrdom at Nicomedia in Bithynia under Maximian.
Lucius Catilina dared a most terrible crime, etc. But Cicero, a man of singular eloquence and gifted with no mediocre shrewdness in detecting plots, furthermore being very sharp in foreseeing things long in advance, when he had uncovered his conspiracy and declared him (in the senate) an enemy, expelled him from the City.
Lupercus of Berytus, a grammarian, who lived a little before the time of the Emperor Claudius II. He wrote *On the particle* ἄν in three books; *On the peacock*; *On the shrimp, or fish*; *On the rooster according to Plato*. *Krisin*, or Origins of Argo in Egypt; *Attic Vocabulary*; *Grammatical Art*; *On masculine, feminine, and neuter genders in XIII books*, in which he hands down many things more correctly than Herodian.
Lycis, who is also Lycus, is criticized by Aristophanes as a cold poet. Phrynichus, Lycis, and Amipsias were held to be three rather cold comic poets. Phrynichus in his comedies usually bored the audience. He was also criticized by the comic poets, as one who was a foreigner on account of his bad poems, and as one who spoke things alien to the subject, and used unpleasant meter in writing songs. There were three other Phrynichi as well.
C Lycophron, of Chalcis from Euboea, son of Socles, adopted by Lycus of Rhegium, was a grammarian and a tragic poet, one of the Pleiades. His tragedies are: *Aeolus*, *Andromeda*, *Alcestis*, *Aeolides*, *Elephenor*, *Heracles*, *Hicetae* (Suppliants), *Hippolytus*, *Cassandrae*, *Aatos*, *Marathonii*, *Nauplius*, *Oedipus* (first and second), *Orphanus*, *Pentheus*, *Pelopidae*, *Symmachi*, *Telegonus*, *Chrysippus*. From these, he exhibited his *Nauplius*, corrected, a second time on the stage. He also wrote *Alexandra*, an obscure poem.
Lycurgus the Spartan, tracing his lineage from Patroclus, was a legislator whom they say received his laws from Crete or from God himself (Apollo). He was called a god by the Pythia, etc. He was born in the eighth year after the Trojan War, the paternal uncle of Charilaus, king of the Spartans, and brother of Eunomus. He ruled over the Spartans for forty-two years, during which time he also introduced laws, when he was tutor to his brother's son, who himself also reigned for eighteen years, and after him Nicander for forty-eight. He wrote laws.
Lycurgus, son of Lycophron, an Athenian of the Eleobutadae gens, was one of the ten orators, among whom Demosthenes is also counted. He, having lived a life without crime, died of disease, leaving behind children whom Demosthenes, the exiled orator, defended by speech when they were harassed by calumnies. His genuine orations which still exist(80) are these: *Against Aristogiton*; *Against Autolycus*; *Against Leocrates*; *Two against Lycophron*; *Against Pasicles*; *Against Menaechmus*; *Against Demades*; *Apology against the same regarding the rendered accounts of the administration of the state*; *Against Ischyrias*; D *Against divinations*; *On the administration of the state*; *On the female priest*; *On the priesthood*; *Epistles and certain other things*.
Lycus, who was also called Butheras, a Rhegian, was a historian, and the father (by adoption) of the tragic poet Lycophron. He lived under the successors of Alexander the Great and was attacked by the intrigues of Demetrius of Phalerum. He wrote the *History of Libya and Sicily*.
*Magnetes*, a drama of Magnet, the comic poet, a Lydian, was corrected by him and presented anew on the stage.
Lynceus of Samos, a grammarian, disciple of Theophrastus, brother of the historian Duris, who was also tyrant of Samos, was a contemporary of the comic poet Menander, whom he defeated in the dramatic competitions. See Kuster, II, page 465.
Lysias, son of Cephalus, a Syracusan, disciple of Tisias and Nicias, was one of the ten orators. He was born at Athens, to which his father had migrated, and in the fifteenth year of his age he set out into the colony of Thurii with his two brothers. But later, when he studied too much with the Athenian faction, he was expelled from there and returned to Athens in the forty-seventh year of his age. His genuine orations are considered to be more than three hundred, and besides these there are others concerning which there is doubt. No one has imitated the purity of his diction except Isocrates. He wrote...
A his *Art of Rhetoric* and *Demegoriae* (Public Speeches), as well as *Encomia*, *Funeral Orations*, and seven *Epistles*, one of which is pragmatic, while the rest are amatory; five of these are addressed to youths.
Lysimachus, whom Demosthenes mentions in his *Oration on Immunities*, was the son of Aristides the Just; but the Lysimachus whom Lycurgus mentions was a vile lyric poet.
Lysippus, from whose dramas the *Bacchae* are taken, as Athenaeus mentions in books III and VIII of his *Deipnosophists*. There are also his other comedies, such as the *Thyrsocómos*.
M Macarius: Two men were famous for their abstinence, their character, and their miracles. One was an Egyptian, the other an Alexandrian. In only one respect did the latter differ from the Egyptian: he was more cheerful and would attract younger men to monastic discipline with a certain affability. Their disciple was Evagrius, who, having first been ordained a deacon at Constantinople by Gregory the Theologian, afterwards went with him to Egypt to visit them. He wrote very useful books, one of which is titled *The Monk*, or *On Active Virtue*; another is the *Gnostic*, or *On Those Who Have Merited the Acquisition of Knowledge*, divided into one hundred and fifty chapters. A third is the *Antirrheticus*, against tempting demons, with eight chapters according to the number of the eight thoughts. He also wrote six hundred *Prognostic Problems*. Finally, *Praecepta*, two books of Aphorisms, one for monks who live in cenobitic communities, the other for B virgins, etc.
Macedonius tried to incite certain Novatians to the Arian dogma, and translated the remains of Constantine to another place, and was finally deposed, etc. (from Socrates, II, 38).

Machaon, the name of a physician, as also Chiron was a centaur.
Maeonides, Homer. An old epigram: "If he was captured, pardon must be granted to you, since even to the prince of hymns, Homer, the riddle of the fishermen brought death."
Magia (Magic), the invocation of benevolent demons for the sake of bringing about some good, etc.; see above under *Goeteia*.
*Magike*. The Medes and Persians invented this. Among the Persians, philosophers and lovers of the divine are called Magi, the chief of whom was Zoroaster, and after him, Ostanus and Ostanes and Astrampsychus.
Magnes from Icaria, a town in Attica, a comic poet who touched upon the aged Epicharmus while he was a youth. He taught nine comedies and won twice; he was a poet of Old Comedy. Aristophanes (in *The Knights*) alludes to his drama *Magnetis*, the *Barbaristae*, and the *Ornithes*. He also wrote the *Lydi* (Upper Lydians), the *Pseis*, and the *Batrachia*. The color *batrachion* (frog-green) is named after this, with which actors used to paint their faces before the use of masks was discovered.
Magnus, a man of Smyrna, distinguished in poetry and music, and also of remarkable appearance; he would travel around cities and recite his own poems publicly. Many people were in love with him, and Gyges most of all, etc.
Malor (Malon), an Arab, a sophist who wrote thirteen books on the *Status of Cases*. He was a contemporary of Apsinnes and Nicagoras under the Emperor Philip, and before him.
Malchus, a Byzantine, a sophist. He wrote a *History from the Reign of Constantine* up to Anastasius, in which he commemorates the exploits of Zeno and Basiliscus, the burning of the public library, and the statue of Augusta, and records other matters, using a grave style and exaggerating what happened in the manner of a tragedian.
*Mallon o Phryx*. When the seven wise men of Greece were asked by Croesus who of all men was most blessed, some replied: wild beasts, for they die for their liberty; others replied: storks, for they follow nature and cultivate justice. But Solon said: no man before his death. Then Aesop, standing by, said: "By so much, he says, do you surpass the others, C as much as the sea surpasses the rivers." Croesus, having heard this, said: "More so, the Phrygian himself."
Manaechmus, of Alopeconnesus, a Platonic philosopher, who wrote *Philosophica* and three books *On the Republic*.
Manaechmus, of Sicyon, son of Alcibius or Alciabiades, a historian who lived under the successors of Alexander the Great. He wrote a *History of Alexander of Macedon*.

Manes. This execrable man appeared under the Emperor Aurelian. Falsely claiming that he himself was Christ and the Holy Spirit, and having twelve disciples with him—just as Christ had—who, having collected the evils from all the heresies, came into Roman territory by the Emperor's permission. This man, who was called both Manes and Scythianus, was originally a Brachman; his teacher was Buddha, formerly called Terebinthus, who was instructed in Greek letters, became enamored of the sect of Empedocles, and established two principles contrary to one another: Strife and D Friendship.
A Having already written four books, he called the first of them *Mysteries*, the second the *Gospel*, the third the *Treasure*, and the fourth the *Chapters*. And this man, indeed, having been struck down by an unclean spirit, died. The woman, however, with whom he lived, having inherited his goods and the profane books, bought a seven-year-old boy named Cubricus, whom she instructed in letters, manumitted, and appointed as her heir. In Persia he called himself Manes, and sold the books of Buddha as his own. The king of the Persians had him flayed alive, because he had been the cause of his son's death. This Manes rejected the Old Testament, and received the New as if from a good God, etc. A certain Paul, a contemporary of Manes and bishop of great Antioch, said that the Lord was a mere man, no different from the prophets. On Paulianism.
Marcellinus, who held the principate of free Dalmatia and the Illyrians, living in Epirus, well-versed in Roman disciplines and skilled in divination, was a man most enamored of learning. Salustius the philosopher was a friend to him. B
Marcellus, magister to Emperor Arcadius, adorned with all virtues, or rather *ἀρετή τις ἔμψυχος*, a living virtue.
Marcellus the Pergamene, an orator, wrote a book, *Adrianus*, or *On the Kingdom*.
Marcellus the Sidetan, a physician, under M. Antoninus, wrote in heroic verse forty-two books *On Medicine*, in which he also treated of the lupine disease in men, or lycanthropy. Cf. Kuster, note 8, II, page 498.
Marcellus, a military commander under Commodus, in order to appear to watch throughout the night, used daily to prescribe twelve tablets *δῶδεκα γραμματεῖα οἴαγε ἐκ φιλύρας ποιεῖται*, and took care for them to be carried to different persons at different hours, etc.
Marcianus, who lived in the time of Emperor Valens and of Angelins, bishops, was a famous man who had formerly served in the palace; he was then a presbyter of the New Church, and instructed Anastasia, the emperor's daughter, in grammar.
Marcianus, a friend of Musonius of Pamphylia, was a man exemplary in every virtue. Musonius attracted upright men to himself like a magnet, so that if anyone heard that some man was a friend of Musonius, one could know that he was a good man. C Marcianus flourished under Zeno, and as a presbyter in the oratory, he was highly regarded by the *Magister Officiorum* of Zeno. He led a corrupt life according to Epicurean tenets, saying that the world came to be of its own accord, etc.
Marcion, heresiarch.
Marcus Antoninus, Roman emperor, worthy of all praise, a philosopher who, among others, eventually heard Sextus the philosopher, born in Boeotia, frequently going to him and visiting his house. Him, therefore, a certain Lucius, a rhetorician and disciple of Herodes the Athenian rhetorician, approached as he was going out, and asked him where he was going and for what business; to whom Marcus said: "It is fitting even for an old man to say that he is going to Sextus the philosopher, that he may learn what he does not yet know." Then Lucius, lifting his hand to heaven, said: "O sun! The Roman emperor, now an old man, has taken up his tablet and frequents the house of his teacher; but my king, Alexander, died at the age of thirty-two." He wrote *On His Own Life*, *Τοῦ ἰδίου βίου διαγωγή*, thirty-two books. It is easier to admire him than to praise him, because no speech can be equal to the virtues of this man, etc.
Mares, bishop of Chalcedon in Bithynia, inveighed against Julian the apostate, when he was sacrificing to Fortune in Constantinople, calling him impious, an apostate, and an atheist. Julian, to Mares (who was suffering from an eye condition due to old age), said: "Neither can your Galilean God heal you." To whom Mares replied: "I give thanks to God, who has deprived me of my sight, so that I might not look upon your face, now that you have fallen into such impiety." Julian, from that time, begrudging the Christians the honor of martyrdom, refrained from the cruelty of Diocletian; but having enacted a law, he forbade the Christians to be instructed in the humaner disciplines, lest, as he said, if they sharpened their tongues, they might respond more readily to the dialects of the Gentiles. By various arts he also persuaded some—among these Hecebolius the sophist—to sacrifice to idols. D
Margites, who is mocked by the comic poets for his stupidity. They say he could not count beyond five, etc.
Marianus, son of Marsus, an advocate, who migrated from Rome to Eleutheropolis, a city of Palestine Prima; he was prefect of the city of Rome, a consular, and—what is more illustrious—was a patrician in the time of Emperor Anastasius.

Marinus, having taken over Proclus' school, when he had instructed Isidorus the philosopher in Aristotelian doctrine and had returned to Athens, showed him a lengthy commentary he had written on Plato's *Philebus*, after their common teacher had died; but he said *ἱκανὰ εἶναι τὰ τοῦ διδασκάλου*—that what Proclus had written on that dialogue was sufficient. Therefore, he immediately committed it to the flames. He also inquired of Isidorus through letters, and sent him arguments by which he might prove that Plato's *Parmenides* is not concerning the gods, but concerning the forms. But he, with many arguments to Marinus...
proved that his interpretation of this dialogue regarding the gods was the most true. Wherefore, if the book had not already been published, he perhaps would have destroyed even this. Perhaps a dream also stood in the way; for Proclus said he dreamed that it would come to pass that Marinus would write commentaries on the *Parmenides*. (Ex Damascius).* A
Marpsias, an orator, garrulous and turbulent, whom Aristophanes mentions.
Marsyas, son of Periander, of Pella, a historian; initially a schoolmaster (γραμματοδιδάσκαλος), brother of Antigonus, who later was king, educated together with King Alexander.

Megarize (μεγαρίζειν), or to follow the sect of the philosopher of Megara. Stilpo was a native of Megara, a city of Greece, who so far surpassed others in the abundance of his words and the dexterity of his debating that almost all of Greece, looking to him, embraced the Megarian sect.

Melitus, son of Lari, of Athens, an orator, who with Anytus accused Socrates and wrote tragedies. He is stung by the comic poets as a "frigid" poet and endowed with a malicious nature. Aristophanes mentions *Melitus' Carian Flute-tunes*, "Scolia of music, which the Carians sing with the flute." But these Carian songs were funereal.
Melitus lived in the times of Zeno of Elea and Empedocles. He wrote *On Being*. In the administration of the state he opposed Pericles, and when he was a commander of the Samians, he fought a naval battle against Sophocles, the tragic poet, in the 84th Olympiad. [Suidas attributes to him also what he had said about the former.]
Menander, of Athens, an ancient comic poet.
Menander the other, of Athens, son of Diopithes and Hegestrates, who is celebrated in the speech of all, a poet of New Comedy, cross-eyed indeed, but endowed with a sharp intellect and prone to the love of women.

Menander, of Laodicea, situated on the Lycus river, a sophist, wrote *Commentaries on the art of Hermogenes and the Progymnasmata of Minucianus*, and others.
Menander the Protector, a historian, who writes of himself: "My father was Euphratas, of Byzantium, not at all a learned man, indeed. My brother-german, who, having tasted the doctrine of the laws, immediately withdrew from that study. But I, indeed, was not accustomed to the profession of the study which I completed, but betook myself to equestrian exercises and the dancing of pantomimes and the wrestling school. But after Maurice assumed the empire, a prince who provided for the safety of the people and loved the Muses, and was delighted as much as possible by hearing poems and histories, as one who would consume a great part of the night himself in studies, and would stimulate and sharpen duller minds with his munificence; then, grieving, I began to reflect with myself that it was not fitting to live a life so idle, and I applied myself to writing this history, which I undertook after the death of Agathias."
Menecrates, a comic poet. His drama is *The Hermionian* (Ὲρμιονεύς).
mirific Pipini apud Thuanum libro vi, et Morho- fium, lib. I Polyhist. cap. 13.
A Menecrates, of Syracuse, a physician who, while curing the sacred disease, would accept no payment; but he asked of those he had healed that they acknowledge themselves to be his slaves.

Mesomedes the Cretan, a lyric poet who lived in the time of Hadrian; he was his freedman or derived from his specific dialects. He wrote an *Encomium to Antinous*, who was the favorite (deliciae) of Hadrian, and other diverse poems. Antoninus restored his tomb when it was discovered, and of Mesomedes, who had composed lyric songs, he built a cenotaph: to the former, because he had learned to play the cithara; to the latter, because he imitated his cruelty.
Metagenes of Athens, son of a slave, a comic poet. Among his dramas are: *The Auras*, *Mammacythus*, *Thuriopersae*, *The Philothytae*, and *Homer or The Ascetics*.
*After the Lesbian song* (Μετὰ Λέσβιον ᾠδόν), following the Lesbian singer. It is said of those to whom the second place is attributed.

He also wrote commentaries on Genesis and the Song of Songs, and many other things which are commonly read. He was crowned with martyrdom in the final persecution under Decius and Valerian in Chalcis, a city of the Orient.
Meton, mathematician: and "Meton’s year." This Meton was a most preeminent physician and astronomer. That there is a certain instrument in Colonus dedicated by him, Callistratus says. Euphronius says he was from Colonus, of the Attic people. Before the age of Pythodorus, there was a heliotrope in the assembly, which is now at the wall in the Pnyx. Either because he built a fountain in Colonus, or made a statue or some astronomical instrument. Phrynichus in *The Monotropus*: Who then is he who cares for this after these things? Meton of Leuconoe, I know, the one who brings the fountains.
Metrios, moderate, modest. When Asclepiodotus had left Athens and reached Seleucia in Syria, he said that on his whole journey he had encountered only three modest and good men: at Antioch, Ilaeus the philosopher; at Laodicea, which is a city of Syria, C the most just man, who had the surname of Aristides; and Domininus the philosopher.

Michael Syncellus, of Jerusalem, wrote an *Encomium of the Great Dionysius*.
Milo the Crotoniate won in wrestling for six consecutive Olympiads. In the seventh Olympiad, however, he could not overcome Mnasitheus, who was also his fellow citizen and a youth, and did not wish to contend with him. At length he was the prey of wolves (from Pausanias, Book VI, p. 369 seq.).
Mimnermus, son of Ligyrtiades, of Colophon, or of Smyrna, or of Astypalaea, an elegiac poet. He lived in the XXXVII Olympiad, so that he was earlier than the seven wise men. Some, however, say he flourished at the same time as they did. He was also called Ligystiades, from *ligys* (lisu), because of his sweet and shrill singing. He wrote many things.

Molpagoras, among the Ciani, was a man prone to speaking and acting, but popular and ambitious in character, etc. (from Polybius).
*Monōdein* (Μονῳδεῖν), to sing a mournful song. Tragic songs, which are recited on stage, are laments. Aristophanes: "Then I nurtured (it) with monodies, mixing in Ciphesophon," i.e., "then I sustained (my poetry) with monodies, and mingled Ciphesophon into them." This Ciphesophon was a slave who assisted him greatly in the composing of songs, etc.
Morsimus and Melanthius, tragic poets, whom Aristophanes criticizes. Morsimus, son of Philocles, a tragic poet...

Antiphemus was the son of Euphemius, grandson of Ecphantus, and great-grandson of Cercyon, whom Theseus defeated. Musaeus, of Thebes, son of Thamyris, grandson of Philammon, a lyric poet who lived long before the Trojan war. He wrote lyric verses and cantatas. Musaeus, of Ephesus, an epic poet of the *cycle to the women* and other cycles; he was one of those who were enrolled in the Pergamene Museum. He wrote ten books of *Perseis*, and likewise [works on] Eumenes and Attalus. See Kuster, note 4, vol. II, p. 378. Musaeus, a philosopher among the Greeks (88). Lysias, in his oration against the accusation of Mixidemus, if indeed he is its true author, says: "He had two boy-servants, one of whom he calls Musaeus, the other Hesiod." It is clear that the defendant did this with intent. Others said that Musaeus was a Thracian, others that he was an inhabitant of the land, born in Eleusis. Musonius, son of Capito, a Tyrrhenian from the city of Volsinii, a dialectician and Stoic philosopher, who lived under Nero, a disciple of Apollonius of Tyana and many others, to whom letters of Apollonius are sent, and [letters] of his to Apollonius. For his boldness, his zeal for disputation, and his immoderate freedom of speech, he was put to death by Nero. His *Orations* and various philosophical *Epistles* are extant. Regarding this Musonius, Julian the Apostate writes thus in a letter: "You bore the insults with which the governor of Greece afflicted us with such greatness of soul that you deemed nothing of these things to have been done to you," provided that you desire the school in which you studied, and [he says] this is the proof. Wherefore it seems to me that it first applied to Socrates, but this [current quote] to Musonius. For the former denied it was lawful to be harmed by that wicked man. But this man truly was a guardian of the walls, when Nero himself ordered him into exile. Musonius, a man distinguished in state affairs under the Emperor Jovian, and Eunapius, the Phrygian orator, presiding over the collection of Asian taxes, etc. *Mydros*. Anaxagoras said the sun was a *mydros*, or red-hot mass of iron, from the Peloponnese; for which he was to be put to death. Myia, a Thespian, a lyric poet. She wrote lyric poems. Myia, a Spartan, a poetess. She wrote *Hymns to Diana*. Myia, daughter of Pythagoras the Great and Theano, a Samian. Myro, a Byzantine, a poetess who wrote heroic, elegiac, and melic verses; daughter of a tragic poet, wife of Andromachus, by cognomen a philologist. Myro, a Rhodian, a philosopher. She wrote *Chrias* and fables. Myrtilus, an Athenian, a comic poet, brother of the comic poet Hermippus. His plays are *Titanes* (89), *Erotes*. *Mythos* and *ainos* differ in that the *ainos* was not made for children, but for men, and should not only entertain the mind, but also contain an admonition. For it seeks to persuade and teach through riddles, which Hesiod appears to have done. Myscelus, having received an oracle, preferred good health to riches; he chose these on behalf of the Crotoniates, who were robust; but the Syracusans became the rich ones. The *plundering of the Mysians* (*Mysōn leía*) is a proverb about those whose property is hostilely snatched away by the neighboring Mysians, just as [it happened] when King Telephus had gone abroad. Myxus, *Baba Myxos*. This [is said] of the boastful and glorious. For Myxus was a priest of Diana, a witty and boastful man. N Nannacus (90). An ancient man before King Deucalion, who, foreknowing a future flood, gathered the people into the temple and prayed with tears. And the proverb "since Nannacus" [is used] regarding very old things. *Nauatios*, presbyter of the Roman Church; and the *Novatian* heretics are those who follow the opinion of Novatus. Naucratis, a city of Egypt founded by the Milesians when they held the empire of the sea. Famous Athenaeus was a citizen of this place.
(88) The same as the first Musaeus, mentioned at Suidas. (89) Kuster (in not. 4, tom. II, p. 590) with Meursius in *Biblioth. attica* emends to *Titanopaides*. HARL. (90) The name seems corrupted from the name Noach; however, this Nannacus (as Stephanus Byz. [says], *Annacus*), is called king of the Phrygians in Suidas, at *to apo Nannakou*, and king in *ta Nannakou*.
Nausicrates, comic poet. Among his dramas are: *Nausicratis*, *Persis*. A
Nauson of Naucratis, regarding those who render equivalents to one another. A style of writing used in epistles, such as Pompeius Pompilo.
Nazaraeus, "dear to God and consecrated," or monk. One should know that in the time of Claudius, the Roman emperor, when the Apostle Peter had created Evodius bishop of Antioch, those who were previously called Nazarenes and Galileans were called Christians.
Neanthes of Cyzicus, orator, pupil of Philiscus of Miletus.
Nearchus, was a companion of Alexander on his expedition, and wrote a history about him. However, he falsely wrote that he was commander of the fleet, when he was the pilot of a ship.
Nemesion (friend of Damascius). Confer Suidas at *Anerreouto* and *Hermaion*.
*Nemeis histrionon*, "distributions of actors." It means that three actors were divided by lot to perform in plays. Among these, the one who was victorious was subsequently accepted without examination.
Neocles the Athenian, philosopher, brother of Epicurus; he wrote about his own sect. And of Neocles is the saying: *Lathe biōsas*, "he who lived well hidden, lived well." (See Menag. ad Diog. Laert. X, segm. III.)
Neophron or Neophon, of Sicyon, tragic poet, whose *Medea* they say Euripides taught [as his own] tragedies; etc.
Nero, an emperor utterly unworthy of his studies, devoted his efforts to playing the lyre, acting in tragedies, and dancing in theaters. But while still an adolescent, he spent his time on philosophical studies, and inquired about Christ, whom he still thought to be living among the quick. When he discovered that he had been put on the cross by the Jews, he was angered at Annas and Caiaphas, along with Pilate, who was then governor of Judea, and ordered them to be brought to him, and inquired of them concerning everything that had been done in his trial, etc. At that time also, Simon Magus was flourishing, and when Peter and Simon were disputing with one another in the presence of Nero, Pilate was brought out from prison. Nero asked Simon if he were Christ? He said that he was. Peter and Pilate denied it: "This man," he said, "is an Egyptian, of a bulky body, and with long hair, and is black on the whole, and distinct from his [Christ's] form," etc. B
Nerva, emperor of the Romans, brought back John the Evangelist to Ephesus from Patmos, where he had been relegated, at the time (92) when the dogma of the Manichaeans also came to light, with Manes openly teaching his heresy.
Nestorius. After Manes, and Paul, and Apollinarius, and Theodore, arose Nestorius, born in Germanicea, a city of Syria; he attained the see of Constantinople, and abused the voice of the two natures in Christ with a wicked error, just as Paul and Theodore, from whom the race [of this error] was drawn. For he was the nephew of the Cilician (Theodorus) and Samosatenian (Paulus). After him arose Eutyches, etc.
Nestor of Laranda, from Lycia, epic poet, father of the poet Pisander, lived under the Emperor Severus and wrote the *Iliad* *leipogrammaton*, lacking certain letters, just as Tryphiodorus wrote the *Odyssey*. For in the first book no 'alpha' is found, in the second no 'beta', etc. He also wrote *Metamorphoses*, like Parthenius, of Nicaea, and other things.
Nicagoras, son of Mnaseas the rhetorician, an Athenian, a sophist, in the time of the Emperor Philip. He wrote *Lives of Famous Men*; *Concerning Cleopatra*, who was in the Troad; and an *Oration* delivered during an embassy to the Emperor Philip.
Nicander, son of Xenophanes, of Colophon or Aetolia, grammarian, poet, C physician, lived in the time of Attalus, the younger, or the last of the Galatians, whose kingdom was taken away by the Romans. He wrote the *Theriaca*, the *Alexipharmaca*, the *Georgica*, *Heteroioumena*, concerning bodies changed into other forms, in five books; a *Collection of Remedies*; *Prognostics* in verse, translated from the *Prognostics* of Hippocrates; *Concerning all Oracles* in three books; and many other things, in epic verse.
There were three Nicanors: one, the son of Balacrus; the second, of Parmenion; the third, a Stagyrite by race, of whom Hyperides makes mention in his *Oration against Demosthenes*.
Nicanor, son of Hermias, of Alexandria, grammarian, in the time of the Emperor Hadrian, during which time also Hermippus of Berytus lived. He wrote *Peri stigmes*, "On punctuation according to Homer," and *On the difference which arises from it in meaning*; *On Punctuation in General*, in six books; a *Compendium* of these in one book; *On Punctuation in Callimachus*, and other things.
Nicetas. See above at Heraclides, the Lycian.
Nicochares, son of Philonides the comic poet, an Athenian, a comic poet, a contemporary of Aristophanes. Among his plays are: *Amymone*, *Pelops*, *Galatea*, *Hercules Marrying*, *Choregus*, *Cretans*, *Laconians*, *Lemnian Women*, *Centaurs*, *Cheirogastores*.
Nicolaus, from Myra in Lycia, a fervent defender of the Christians and a priest, who offered prayers to God with great confidence. He indeed wrote nothing, but standing before the Emperor Constantine in his sleep, etc.
Nicolaus of Damascus, friend and intimate of Herod, king of the Jews, and of Augustus Caesar, who called the honey-cakes sent by him "Nicolaos": a Peripatetic philosopher or Platonic. He wrote a *Universal History* in eighty books, or according to Athenaeus, in 140 books, or 124, on the authority of Josephus. And likewise, *On the Life and Education of Caesar*. He had a father who had attained wealth and fame through his learning: therefore, having been educated in all literature from childhood, he had acquired uncommon skill in grammar and from there in poetry, so that tragedies and comedies D fell away. For the origin of the Manichaean sect is removed from the age of Nerva by more than a hundred years.
A was believed to be active, from which comes the proverb, "I shall do everything according to Nicostratus."
Nomades: The Sacae, mentioned by Aristophanes (in the Birds), were a tragic poet, so called because they were wandering.
Nomothetai, Lawgivers: Such were those of old—Moses, and later Christ. Among the Athenians, the first legislator was Draco; after him Solon; after him Thales; and after him Aeschylus.
Nomoi citharoedikoi: Apollo, as they say, having employed the lyre, offered to men, according to which they might live, tempering at the same time their innate ferocity with song, and making them more easily accept the precepts of the muses through the sweetness of musical sounds; hence, as it seems to Aristotle, as melodic sequences according to which we sing, they were called by the name "nomoi."
Nomus and Januarius, men powerful in virtue, embraced a solitary and leisurely life, of whom Nomus was more ingenious and a lover of learning, as philosophical as he was prepared for the youth. Among their number was a critic who could best judge the virtues and vices of the poems of other writers. Indeed, I would not believe that Severianus, nor the philosopher Agapius, possessed as much judgment, learning, and eloquence. Januarius, however, was more experienced in practical affairs and more prudent in civic matters than his brother Nomus, etc.
Nomos: It signifies three things: for there is law C without letters, implanted by creation in men; another in writing, the law written through Moses, for the sake of those who violated the former; a third by grace and the spirit. The law, according to the Apostle, signifies four things, etc.
"Axones" were what the Athenian laws of Solon were called. See above under "Kyrbeis."
Nonnus, of Panopolis, from Egypt, a most learned man who wrote a paraphrase of the Theo-logy of the Virgin in heroic verses. Ausonius, the sophist, addressed epistles and other things to Nonnus. See above under "Ausoneus."
Novatus (Navatos) caused a schism in the Roman Church against Cornelius, the bishop, etc., from Socrates, book IV, 28.
Novatians: Their bishop was Sisinnius, etc., from Sozomen, VIII. 1.
Numa (Noumas), a Roman legislator. The name implies custom. He founded the republic with laws and institutions, and was the first to discover the year and the circuit of the sun, which before was wandering and uncertain, and he distributed it into twelve months. He also established temples and sacred groves, he placed pontiffs and flamens over the priests, and ordered the Salii to dance through the city. D In addition to this, he entrusted the fire and water to the Vestal Virgins, whose dignity was supreme and whose virginity, as long as they lived, was inviolate. But if any one of them had had relations with a man, she was buried alive.
A minus perspicax. Yet Plutarch judged that a philosopher should not be questioned about just any matters, nor should he be expected to answer about any subject on the spur of the moment. He thought it difficult, and all but impossible, for men—even those who are examined and reliable—to say or hold firm opinions about the gods.
Oenomaus, of Gadara, a Cynic philosopher, not much older than Porphyry. He wrote *On the Cynic Sect*, *Politeia* (or *On the Republic*), *On Homeric Philosophy*, and *On Crates, Diogenes, and others* (the Cynics).
*Oiōnistikēn* (Augury). The Phrygians were the first to invent the art of augury, and its species are: 1) *Ornithoscopikon* (Augury from birds), as when a bird flies in front or behind, or swerves to the right or left, and someone declares that it signifies this or that. Telegonus first wrote about this art. 2) *Oikoskopikon*, when the things that occur at home are observed, as if a weasel or a snake appears on the roof, or if oil, honey, wine, water, or ashes have been spilled, or if wood has cracked, or anything else has happened; this signifies this or that. Xenocrates wrote on this type of divination. 3) *Enodion*, when someone interprets things that happen to us on the road, as when someone meets you carrying something, implying that this or that will happen to you. Polles wrote about this. 4) *Cheiroscopikon*, when we look at the open hand and its lines and say, “He will beget children,” or something of that sort. Helenus wrote on this. 5) *Phalmikon*, those who study this predict the future from the twitching or palpitation of their limbs—for B example, when the right or left eye jumps, or a shoulder or thigh, or when the foot itches or the ear rings, this or that will happen. Posidonius wrote about this type of divination.
Olen, of Dyme, or a Hyperborean, or a Lycian, an epic poet. But he is rather a Lycian, from Xanthus, as Callimachus declares, and Alexander Polyhistor in his *History of Lycia*.
Olophyxis, a city of Thrace near Mount Athos, whose citizen was Herodotus of Olophyx, who they say wrote *On Nymphs and Sacrifices*.
Olympias, a contest customary to be performed every fourth year, on account of the day which is gathered every fourth year from the six hours. The first Olympiad falls in the age of Solomon, at which time the festival of Zeus was celebrated with public solemnity.
Olympiodorus, a most famous Alexandrian philosopher. Proclus, the Lycian, came to study Aristotelian doctrine with him. When he heard Olympiodorus—an eloquent man who, because of the fluency and speed of his speech, was understood by few of his listeners—he was so approved by him that he wanted to betroth his little daughter, herself instructed in philosophy, to him. Conf. Kuster, note 3, vol. II, p. 683.
Olympus, brother of Genesia (Tenephos), who came from Cilicia to Alexandria to worship Serapis, a man of admirable talent, large and tall of body, with an honest and noble face and incredible powers of persuasion. Wherefore he was appointed *hierodidaskalos*, or master of sacred rites, at C
A Alexandria, who were then being hurried toward the worse as by a torrent of public affairs. He, gathering those he could, taught them the ancient institutions, and to those who accompanied him, and who observed these, he demonstrated happiness. To his friends, however, he predicted that Serapis would abandon the temple, which also came to pass.
Olympius, son of Maeon, a Mysian, a flute player, a lyric and elegiac poet, author of music that is performed by striking, and also of that which consists of pipe-singing; he was a disciple and beloved of Marsyas, who was a Satyr by birth, but a pupil and son of Hyagnis. Olympus lived before the Trojan War, from whom a mountain in Mysia also received its name.
Onesimus, a Cypriot or Spartan, a historian and sophist in the times of the Emperor Constantine. He wrote *Divisions of States*; *Judicial Art toward Apsines*; *On the Art of Contradicting*; *Progymnasmata*; *Declamations, Encomia*, and very many other things.
Onesicritus, to be considered as far inferior to Xenophon as a copy is to an archetype.
Onetor, against whom Demosthenes wrote *Orations on Judgment*, of force, or *of violence*. He was one of the *choragi*, of whom Isocrates also makes mention in his *Oration on the Antidosis*.
Onosander, a Platonic philosopher, wrote *Tactics, or On Drawing Up a Battle Line*; *On Strategems*; *Commentaries on the Books of Plato*; *On the Republic*.
Ophelio, a comic poet, from whose plays, according to Athenaeus, are the *Deucalion*, *Callaeschrus*, *Centaur*, *Satyrs*, *Muses*, and *Monotropa*. He mentions him in the second book of his *Deipnosophists*.
*Ω ἐφήμερε*, O man of short life. Thus Socrates in Aristophanes’ *Clouds* to Strepsiades. Because he himself kept his mind intent upon divine matters, or perhaps because Socrates was said to be like Silenus, for he was snub-nosed and bald; indeed, in Pindar, Silenus says to Olympus: *Ω τάλας, ἐφήμερε, νήπιε, βάζεις χρηματά μοι διακομπεύων*: "O wretch, mortal, fool, you boast of your wealth to me with magnificent words."
B He wrote *To Those Concerning the Doctors Who Doubt*, in nine books; *To the Emperor Julian*, in seventy-two books; *Epitomes of them*, in nine books; *To Eustathius, my son*. Item, *On the Kingdom and Affections*.
Origenes, who is also Adamantius, a man most learned and well-versed in every kind of discipline, a student of Ammonius Saccas, the philosopher, of whose life and writings Suidas brings forward much from the sixth book of Eusebius, and from Cedrenus; and he narrates, among other things, that he explained the Sacred Scriptures through prayer within eighteen years and wrote up to six thousand books, and because of their multitude, he was called *Syntaktikon*, etc.
Orion, the Theban, an Egyptian, wrote a *Collection of Sentences*, or *Florilegium*, and to Eudocia, the wife of the Emperor Theodosius the Younger, in three books.
Orion, the Alexandrian, a grammarian, wrote a *Florilegium*, a *Collection of Attic Words*; *On Etymology*; *Encomium of Hadrian* the Caesar.
Orpheus, sprung from Lebethra in Thrace (Lebethra is a city near Pieria), son of Oeagrus and Calliope. Oeagrus truly was the fifth from Atlas, and she one of his daughters. He lived eleven ages before the Trojan War, and the story goes that they were students of Linus, and that he lived for nine ages. Others say eleven. He wrote the *Triagmoi*, which others say are Ionic tragedies. Among these also were those called *Hierostolika*. *Kliseis* (or *kleseis*), *Cosmika*, *Neoterika*. The *Sacred Discourses*, in twenty-four books, are said however to be by Theognetus the Thessalian; others attribute them to Cercops the Pythagorean: *Oracles*, which are referred to Onomacritus; *Teletai*, *Initia*, which are said to be by Onomacritus. In these is also a book *On the Sculpting of Stones*, which is inscribed *Ogdokontalithos*. *Soteria*. These are said to be by Timocles the Syracusan, and Perginus the Milesian. *Epaseis* are attributed to him. *Thronismous Matroous*, of the great mother of the gods and Bacchic ones, which are said to be by Nicias the Elean. The *Descent into Hell*, which is reported as being by Herodice the Perinthian; the *Peplum* and *Net*. These also are attributed to Zopyrus, and by others to Brontinus. *Onomastikon*, in twelve hundred heroic verses; *Astronomica*; *Amokopian*, *Thuepolikon* or *Book of Sacrifices*; *Osthytika or Ooskopika*, *On Divination from Eggs*, in heroic verses; *Katazostikon*, *Hymns*; the *Corybantic* and *Physical* [works], which are said to be by Brontinus.

Orpheus, an Odrysian, an epic poet, whom Dionysius says did not even exist. Nevertheless, certain poems are attributed to him.
Orpheus, a Crotoniate, an epic poet, whom Asclepiades in the sixth book of *Grammarians* hands down as having been intimate with the tyrant Pisistratus. He wrote the *Dekaeteris*, *Argonautica*, and certain other things.
Orpheus, a Camarinaean, an epic poet, whose *Descent into Hell* they say this is.
Oppianus, a Cilician from the city of Corycus, a grammarian and epic poet, who lived under the Emperor M. Antoninus (Caracalla). He wrote the *Halieutica* (on fishing) in five books; *Cynegetica* (on hunting) in four books; *Ixeutica* (on bird-catching) in two books. When his poems had been read before the Emperor, he donated to him for every single verse a golden stater or coin, so that for all the verses he would receive twenty thousand coins.
*Opsartutike*, the art of cooking. Artemidorus, a pseudo-Aristophanian, collected words pertaining to the culinary art.
*Orpha*. Herodotus, seeing Thucydides weeping as if by some instinct of a divine power (when he had heard Herodotus reading his histories), said to the father of Thucydides: "I judge you fortunate, Olorus, for the sake of such children. For your son has a soul desirous of learning."
Oribasius, a Sardian, a familiar friend of Julian the Apostate, by whom he was appointed quaestor of Constantinople.
Orpheus, king of the Thracians, in whose time the Amazons made the Phrygians tributary to them.
In the time of the Judges of the Jews, after the Athenian kingdom was abolished, Orpheus was famous, a man most wise and most skilled in many mysteries. There are also attributed to him *Books on Theology* (cf. Kuster, from John Matala and Cedrenus, *On Theology*), in which among other things he says this: that the ether was made by God in the beginning, and that from both parts of the ether was chaos, etc. Orpheus' lyre.
Orus, an Alexandrian, a grammarian who taught at Constantinople. He wrote *On Ambiguous Vowels*; *How Gentiles are to be corrected*; *Solutions of the Propositions of Herodian*; *A Table of the same*, an Index of his own works; *On Enclitic Particles*; *Orthography in alphabetical order*; *On the Diphthong*; *Orthography of the diphthong against Phrynichus, in alphabetical order*; *A Florilegium of Sentences*.
Ostanes. Thus the magi were once called among the Persians, who succeeded Zoroaster.
*None the more.* The Sceptics or Pyrrhonians, subverting the decrees of all sects, posit no dogma themselves, etc.
*Nothing to do with Bacchus.* When Epigenes of Sicyon had composed a tragedy in honor of Bacchus, the people shouted this: "Nothing to do with Bacchus." Or rather: formerly they competed with songs composed in honor of Bacchus, which are called "Satyric." But later, when they set about writing tragedies, they gradually turned to fables and histories, making no longer any mention of Bacchus. Thus Chamaeleon in his book *On Thespis*. Theaetetus, however, in his book *On the Proverb*, reports that Parrhasius, competing with other painters, had painted Bacchus most beautifully, and the Corinthians, seeing the work of the rivals, exclaimed: "What has this to do with Bacchus?"
*Not even among the parsley.* Used of those who have not attained even the beginning of a matter; taken from a metaphor of those who enter gardens, but do not reach the furthest parts of the gardens (the *perikēpoi*), where the Greeks used to plant parsley and rue.
*I will never accept this.* In banquets, the Athenians once used to sing a song which was called the *Harmodius*, after Harmodius and Aristogiton, who overthrew the tyranny of the Pisistratidae, the beginning of which is: "Dearest Harmodius, you are surely not dead" (94). There were also other songs of this kind; one was called the *Admetus*, another the *Lampon*. (See below under *Paroinos*.)
*I did not use tumid words,* as Aeschylus says.
*Not within.* Aristophanes mocks Euripides, as a logician, etc., having separated souls from bodies in the Homeric manner. For when Homer had said: "Many strong souls of heroes he sent down to Hades," he adds: "and made them a prey for dogs." A
*Utides* (No-one) and *Sorites*: Certain sophisms so called.
*It is not necessary.* Aeschylus concerning Alcibiades: "Do not rear a clever man in the city; but if you have reared him, do not irritate him, but soothe him with flatteries." Euripides advised that a lion's cub should not be received into the city. Bacchus to this (in Aristophanes): "I can hardly judge which of them spoke better. For Aeschylus spoke wisely, Euripides clearly." B
P
Pacatus, also called Minucius, and Irenaeus, an Alexandrian, a grammarian, wrote *On the Alexandrian Dialect*, or *On Atticizing*, in seven books, in alphabetical order; *On Attic and Doric peculiarities*; *On Atticizing* and many other things. (Above, under Irenaeus.)

Palæphatus, an Athenian, an epic poet, son of Actaeus and Bion—or, as others say, of Jocle and Metanira, or of Mercury. He lived according to some after Phemonoe, according to others, before her. He wrote the *Cosmopoïan*, a poem on the creation of the world, in five thousand verses; *The Nativity of Apollo and Diana*, in 3000 verses; *The Voices and Conversations of Venus and Cupid*, in five thousand verses; *The Contention of Minerva and Neptune*, in a thousand verses; *Latona’s Hair*.
Palæphatus, a Parian or Prienean, who lived in the time of Artaxerxes. He wrote five books of *Incredibilia*. Some attribute these to the Athenian Palæphatus. But he, too, wrote on the same subject. C
Palæphatus, an Abydenian, a historian. He wrote *Cypriaca, Deliaca, Attica and Arabica*. He lived under Alexander of Macedon and was a favorite of the philosopher Aristotle, as Philo is author in the first book of the *Elements of Paradoxical History*; and Theodore of Ilium, in his book *On the Trojan Affairs*.
Palæphatus, an Egyptian or Athenian, a grammarian, wrote *Egyptian Theology*, a book of fables; *Solutions of Fabulous Sayings*; *Arguments on Simonides*; *Trojan Res*, which work others attribute to the Parian Palæphatus. He also wrote his own *History*, *Historian Idian*.
Palamedes, of Elea, a grammarian, wrote on comic and tragic diction: *Onomasticon*, or *Nomenclator*; a *Commentary on the Poet*. Pindarum.
Palamedes, son of Nauplius and Climene, an Argive, an epic poet, and cousin of King Agamemnon, a philosopher no less keen than he was an ingenious poet. He was the inventor of the letters zeta, eta, phi, chi, and likewise of calculations, and dice, and the game of *alveus*, and of measures and D that of Callistratus. See what I have noted at page 90 et seq. HARL.
[ponderum]. His poems were destroyed by the descendants of Agamemnon through envy. I believe Homer too, suffering from the same envy, made no mention of him. The songs of Palamedes were destroyed by Homer out of envy, etc. Palladius, son of Palamedes, of Methone, a sophist who lived under the Emperor Constantine. He wrote *On Roman Festivals*, *Disputations*; *Diverse Orations*, such as *Olympiaca*, *Panegyrica*, and *Judiciales*. Pamphile, of Epidaurus, a wise woman, daughter of Soteridas, whose commentaries are said to be those that are borne under the name of Pamphile (as Dionysius is the author in his book XXX of the *History of Music*), or those of her husband, Socratidas. She wrote *Historical Commentaries* in XXXIII books; an *Epitome of Ctesias* in III books; *Epitomes of Histories*, and very many of other books; A *On Controversies*; *On Sexual Matters*; and many others. Pamphilus, of Amphipolis, or Sicyon, or Nicopolis. A philosopher nicknamed Pompolygrammatos. He wrote *Images* [of herbs] in alphabetical order; *An Art of Grammar*; *On Painting and Famous Painters*; *On Rural Affairs* in III books. Pamphilus, a grammarian, an Aristarchean, wrote *The Meadow, or Collectanea of Various Matters*; *On Glosses or Words* in XCV books, from the letter A to Ω. For he had composed from A to A [as far as] Zopyrion; *On the Passages of Nicander explained by others*, and what are called *Theriaca* (96) or *On Serpents*; *An Art of Criticism* and many other grammatical [works]. Pamphilus, who always spoke in verse at banquets, as Athenaeus reports in *Deipnosophistae*, book 1, p. 4. Pamphilus, a demagogue at Athens, etc. Pamprius, who held great power under Zeno (emperor), born at Thebes, a city of Egypt, endowed with a genius apt for all things, a poet and apt for poetry; when he came to Athens, he was chosen by the city as a grammarian and taught there for many years. At the same time, he was educated under the great Proclus in all branches of recondite wisdom. Hence, wishing to appear second to none, he contended with all the philosophers, except Proclus; he strove to surpass in the glory of his learning even Plutarch, son of Hierius, the Athenian, and Hermias the Alexandrian, a rhetorician. But when he was denounced by calumniators before Theagenes, a citizen of that place, and, being harried more severely than befitted a teacher, he came to Byzantium: where, in a city in which all were Christians, he brought a reputation with his Greek religion, which he did not disguise, that he was also gifted in other arcane (magical) doctrine. Therefore, when Illus had heard him reciting a certain poem, he held him in esteem and gave him a stipend, partly from his own [purse], and partly from the public. B Then envious men, persuading Zeno and Verina that since he was prophesying against the emperor with Illus, they caused him to be relegated. Hence he came to Pergamum in Mysia, and soon was recalled to Illus in Isauria, etc. This Illus, being a lover of letters, wished to hear the internal disputations of learned men: and when, from the disputations and dissension of many who were present, it appeared that their oratory did not hold together, Marsus, a grammarian or man of letters, born from Pane in Egypt, recited an oration he had long meditated elegantly, and, as Plato said, "an ignorant man can persuade an ignorant audience more easily than a learned one," Hillus, deceived by the artificial eloquence of Marsus, judged him to be of greater erudition than all the doctors of Constantinople, and from the public treasury he attributed money to him, C and ordered him to teach at the museums, *by selection*, those who frequented the schools, with the choice [of students] commanded.

They wrote down the same observances, as well as [rules on] continence and the life of marriage, etc. There were also the more strict, the admirable Essaei.

During the war between the Athenians and Antigonus, while living in the Piraeus, Philemon saw in a dream nine girls leaving his house. Freed from sleep, he recounted the dream to a boy, and the rest of the drama, which he had begun, he finished. Afterwards, wrapping himself in his bedclothes, he lay quietly and was presently found dead. "The nine Muses were therefore present, Epicurus, to Philemon, and when he was about to enter upon that fatal and final journey, they departed from him. For it is sacrilege for the gods to behold the dead, even if they are dearest to them, lest they defile their aspect with the exhalations of the dying. But you, fool, say that they do not even care for our affairs." Aelian, in his book *On Providence*.

Philyllius, an Athenian, a comic poet of the ancient comedy, from whose plays are: *Aegeus*, *Auge*, *Anteia*, *Dodekate* (this is the name of a harlot), *Heracles*, *Plynteria* or *Nausicaa*, *Polis* (Pollacius and Athenaeus [call it] *Poleis*, in the plural number), *Phreorychos*, *Atalantes*, *Elene*.
Philyrinus Cinesias, was a dithyrambic poet, who was called *Philyrinos* (not on account of leanness or paleness, as Suidas says, but because he was accustomed to wrap himself in linden-wood boards on account of his thinness, so that he might walk straight, as Kuster rightly noted from Athenaeus XII, p. 551).
Phledon. Timon, criticizing the philosopher Antisthenes on account of the multitude of his writings, calls him *Pantophylledon*, or "the universal trifler."
Phlegon, a Trallian, a freedman of Augustus Caesar, or as others say, a historian, wrote *Olympiads* in XVI books. They contain the deeds performed throughout the world,
A up to the Olympiad CCXXIX; he also set them forth in "VIII books"; a *Description of Sicily*; *On Long-lived Persons and Remarkable Things*; *Three Books on Roman Festivals*; *On the Places of Rome and Their Names*; *An Epitome of the Olympic Victors*, and others. Philostorgius notes that Josephus carried out the history of the Jews more extensively than Phlegon and Dio, since they only touched upon them briefly and incidentally. However, as for those matters which pertain to piety and other virtues, neither he nor they took any account. It seems that he feared and guarded against offending the Greeks in relation to Josephus.
Phrynicus, son of Melanthas, an Athenian, a tragic poet. Among his plays are *Andromeda* and *Erigone*. He also composed the *Pyrrhichae*. The Athenians fined Phrynicus one thousand drachmae because he had taught a tragedy about the taking of Miletus.
Phrynicus, an Athenian, one of the last of the comic poets of the Old Comedy, who began to produce plays in the Olympiad LXXXVI. His dramas are: *Ephialtes*, *Cronus*, *Connus*, *Comastae*, *Satyri*, *Tragoedi or the Released*, *Monotropus*, *Musae*, *Mystis*, *Trochistria Satyri*. Phrynicus, Lycis, and Amipsias are rather cold comic poets.

Phrynis, son of Aristoclides, who flourished during the Median War and traced his lineage from Terpander, a pupil, a Mytilenean citharoedist who is considered the first to have played the cithara before the Athenians and to have won at the Panathenaea, when Callias was archon. Ister in his *Melopoeia* testifies that Phrynis was a Lesbian, son of Canopis, who, when he was a cook to the tyrant Hiero, was given to Aristoclides along with many others. But if he had been a servant and cook to Hiero, the comic poets would not have been silent about it, as they often complain that he broke and changed the ancient music with soft modulations.
Phylarchus, an Athenian or Naucratite (others say Sicyonian or Egyptian), a historian. He wrote *The Expedition of Pyrrhus, the Epeirot, into the Peloponnese*, in XXVIII books. He carries his history down to Ptolemy Euergetes and the death of Berenice, and down to the death of Cleonymus the Lacedaemonian, against whom Antigonus waged war: *The Deeds Performed by Antiochus and Eumenes of Pergamum*; *A Mythical Epitome*; *On the Appearance of Zeus*; *On Inventions*; *of Reminiscences* in IX books.
*Physicos Logos*. After ethics, the Stoics treat of natural things. Three things are observed in natural matters: form, matter, and cause, on account of which form is in matter. Around these revolve five methods: physics, particular arts, dialectic, mathematics, first philosophy, etc.
Phrynicus, son of Polyphradmon or of Minyas or of Chorocles, an Athenian, a tragic poet, a pupil of The-
Pigres, a Halicarnassian, brother of Artemisia, A of Thespis, who was the first inventor of tragedy. He was victorious in Olympiad LXVII, and was the first to bring a female character onto the stage and was the inventor of the tetrameter; he had a son, Polychradmon, a tragic poet. His tragedies are these nine: *Pleuronia*, *Aegyptii*, *Actaeon*, *Alcestis*, *Antaeus or Aides*, *Dicaei*, *Persae*, *Synthokoi* or (as Kuster commands to read, vol. III, p. 637, n. 3) *Synthakoi*, *Danaides*.
Phrynicus, son of Melanthas, an Athenian, a tragic poet. Among his plays are *Andromeda* and *Erigone*. He also composed the *Pyrrhichae*. The Athenians fined Phrynicus one thousand drachmae because he had taught a tragedy about the taking of Miletus.

His dramas are: *Ephialtes*, *Cronus*, *Connus*, *Comastae*, *Satyri*, *Tragoedi or the Released*, *Monotropus*, *Musae*, *Mystis*, *Trochistria Satyri*. Phrynicus, Lycis, and Amipsias are rather cold comic poets.

But if he had been a servant and cook to Hiero, the comic poets would not have been silent about it, as they often complain that he broke and changed the ancient music with soft modulations.
Phylarchus, an Athenian or Naucratite (others say Sicyonian or Egyptian), a historian. He wrote *The Expedition of Pyrrhus, the Epeirot, into the Peloponnese*, in XXVIII books. He carries his history down to Ptolemy Euergetes and the death of Berenice, and down to the death of Cleonymus the Lacedaemonian, against whom Antigonus waged war: *The Deeds Performed by Antiochus and Eumenes of Pergamum*; *A Mythical Epitome*; *On the Appearance of Zeus*; *On Inventions*; *of Reminiscences* in IX books.
Phrynicus, son of Polyphradmon or of Minyas or of Chorocles, an Athenian, a tragic poet, a pupil of The-

Pisander, of Camirus, son of Pisos and Aristæchma, who is said to be equal to Homer; some say he is older than Hesiod, others that he lived in the 33rd Olympiad. He had a sister, Dioclea. He wrote the *Heraclean*, a poem on the deeds of Hercules, in two books, in which he was the first to attribute the club to Hercules. His other poems are considered bastard works, thought to be composed partly by others and partly by the poet Aristeas after the death of Pisander. Consult the notes of Kuster on both, Vol. III, page 107.
Pisander, son of Mentor the poet, of Laranda or Lycia, who lived in the times of the Emperor Alexander, son of Mammaea; he was an epic poet himself. He wrote a *History* in various verses, which he titled *Heroogony* (8) of the gods and goddesses, in VI books (9). Also other things, in prose.
Pittacus, of Mytilene, son of Caicus or Hyrrhadius the Thracian, and of a Lesbian mother, born in the 32nd Olympiad, one of the seven wise men. He wrote *Laws*; and in the 49th Olympiad, he killed Melanchrus, the tyrant of Mytilene, and Phrynon, the Athenian general, who was waging war over Sigeum, in single combat, after having entangled him in a net. An old man compelled to lead the army, he said: "How difficult it is to be good!" A celebrated apophthegm of his is: "Know the time," C meaning "Know your opportunity." He wrote DC elegiac verses, and *On Laws* in prose.
Pixodarus. See above, under Dexippus, of Cos.
Plato, son of Ariston (who had Aristocles as father, and Perictione or Potone, who traced her lineage to Solon). For the sixth descendant from that daughter was Dropides the poet, brother of Solon. Solon traced his lineage to Neleus and Ariston. Plato's father was the son of Codrus, son of Melanthi. Plato's mother, as a result of a certain divine vision, after Apollo had appeared to her, brought Plato to light only once her husband had lived with her. He was born in Aegina in the 88th Olympiad, and lived LXXXII years. He died in the 108th Olympiad, a bachelor and a virgin. He left this life when he had feasted at a festival. He also had other sons by Ariston: Adeimantus and Glaucus, and a daughter, Potone. He learned the first rudiments of letters from Dionysius; in the palaestra he trained under Ariston, from Argos. Having learned the poetic art, he wrote *Dithyrambs* and *Tragedies*. Having abandoned these, he philosophized under Socrates for about XX years. And it is said that Socrates, on the day he came to him, saw Plato in a dream sitting on his knees. He was called Aristocles first, then Plato, either because D of his broad chest (*platus to sternon*), or because he was broad in speech (*platus en logois*), i.e., copious in oratory. He went to Sicily three times to the tyrant Dionysius. He came to the tyrant Anniceras, an African, who redeemed him and let him go. He taught in the Academy, and his school was frequented in order by: Speusippus, Xenocrates, Polemo, Crantor, and Crates. His Socratic followers were: Arcesilaus, Lacydes, Evander of Phocaea, Damon, Leonteus, Moschion, Evander of Athens, Hegesinus, Carneades, and Charmadas. All his true dialogues are LVI, of which some are physiological, others ethical, others dialectical. His *Republic* is divided into ten books; his *Laws* into XII books. The rest of the tetralogies are nine. Plato was poor, and only possessed a garden in the Academy, from which the annual income returned. Yet, due to the liberality of lovers of learning, who left their goods to him in their testaments to promote the studies of philosophy, the entire income was one thousand or more gold pieces.
Suidas further relates many things which he affirms that Plato drew from the sacred books or learned from the Egyptians. In these also, in his A *Cosmological Description* or *Geography*.
Polemon, from Laodicea on the Lycus, a rhetor and sophist, who taught at Smyrna, a disciple of the rhetor Aristides. He lived in the time of Trajan and after, a disciple of the philosopher Timocrates, of Pontic origin and from the school of Scopelian. He died at the age of fifty-six, when he had thrown himself into a tomb and brought death upon himself by fasting, because he was troubled by an arthritic disease. Therefore, to his grieving kinsmen and friends he said: "Give me another body, and I will migrate into that." To the physicians also, as they were chanting incessantly, he said: "Most quickly cut out Polemon's stones."
Polemon Junior, a sophist in the time of Commodus.

Plotinus, of Lycopolis, a philosopher, a disciple of Ammonius, who was formerly a *saccophoros* or porter, the teacher of Amelius, whom Porphyry heard (10), as Jamblichus heard Porphyry, and Sopater heard him.

He himself also presided over the Academy, and although he had previously been most dedicated to luxury, he later began to philosophize. He wrote many books, but none of them survive. He delighted especially in Homer and Sophocles, saying that both were endowed with equal wisdom; whence he called Homer the epic Sophocles, and Sophocles the tragic Homer. D
Polemon, son of Evegetes, an Ilien from the village of Glycyia, given citizenship by the Athenians, and therefore enrolled as a Helladic: a traveler and historian. He lived in the time of Ptolemy Epiphanes. But Asclepiades of Myrlea is the author who says he was a contemporary of Aristophanes the grammarian, and that he also heard Panaetius the Rhodian (11).

He wrote that extensive *Roman History in XL books*, connecting in order the events managed by the Romans from the flight of Cleomenes the Spartan to the succession of Perseus, son of Philip, to the Macedonians. Apollonius, the Olbiopolite, a sophist, also Strabo of Amaseia, wrote a history beginning from where Polybius ends, in XLIII books.
Polycarp, an auditor of John the Evangelist, the theologian, successor of Bucolus, the first bishop of the Smyrnaeans, martyred for Christ under Marcus Antoninus. He wrote an epistle to the Philippians, *nānu thaumastēn*, altogether admirable, and to the great Dionysius the Areopagite, and to other Churches. C Coming to Rome, while Anicetus held the episcopate of the Roman Church, on account of certain questions concerning the day of Easter, he brought back to the faith many who had believed in the doctrine of Marcion and Valentinus. Having happened to meet Marcion, when he said to him: "Recognize us," Polycarp responded: *Iginōskō sei*, "I recognize you as the first-born son of the devil."

He is that Proclus who, second only to Porphyry, leveled a petulant tongue against the Christians, against whom John Philoponus wrote, refuting his XVIII arguments with admirable dexterity and showing him to be unlearned and endowed with little judgment, even in those Greek disciplines in which he boasted. He also wrote Proclus' *Book on the Mother of the Gods*, which if anyone takes into his hands, from it he will understand that the philosopher, not without divine afflatus, brought the theology of those things into the light, so that audiences are no longer disturbed by the lamentations which are heard (in those sacred rites).
Proclus, quaestor of the Emperor Justin, a just man who wrote no law, etc.
Procopius, the Illustrious, of Caesarea in Palestine, a rhetorician and sophist. He wrote *Byzantine History* or *The Wars of Belisarius* and the deeds of Rome and in Africa.

But Epicurus says that *prolepsis* is the memory of that which has appeared frequently from without, etc.
Prometheus of the Jewish judges was celebrated among the Greeks, who first invented grammar and philosophy. The same man is said to have fashioned men, as he taught the unlearned wisdom. Then flourished Prometheus, who invented music; and Atlas, who because he interpreted astronomy, was said to carry the heavens. Furthermore, Argus, who because he discovered the arts, was pretended to have many eyes. Then was the Sibyl the Fatidical, reigning among the Egyptians in the time of Pharaoh, whose surname was Taracho, and at Athens Cecrops.
A He was called "biformis" or "two-formed" either by reason of the size of his body, or because he had come from Egypt to Greece, or because he had brought in a law against promiscuous sexual union, for he brought together one woman with one man. Cecrops did this, who, deriving his lineage from the Egyptians, was not ignorant of the laws that Vulcan, the king of that region, had established. He himself reigned at Athens for fifty years.
Pronomus, a flute-player, whom the comic poets satirized for his long beard.
Prophecy differs: there is spiritual prophecy and diabolical prophecy. For predictions of demons are called prophecy; there is also natural, or artificial, which is intermediate between these; and finally, there is common and popular prophecy. And the spiritual B kind is indeed primarily of the saints; but those who are not such, like Pharaoh, Balaam, and Caiaphas, are also sometimes participants in the divine dispensation. The diabolical kind pertains only to the worshippers of demons. Of this type are those who divine from the inspection of flour and barley, and the Pythia, and oracles from the oak, and the Dodonaean [oracles], and sacrificers, and augurs, and observers of signs and sneezes and omens and thunderings and mice and weasels and the creaking of wood and the ringing of ears and palpitations of the body and names; likewise, those who evoke the shades of the dead, and predict the future from the stars, waters, and countless other things. For divination from dreams is in use among us, yet it is by divine inspiration. Natural divination belongs to brute animals. For swallows and cranes and ants sense an impending storm, as do sea urchins and halcyons, by the gift of nature. But the divination which consists of art belongs to physicians, counselors, and governors, etc. But the property of true prophecy is to have the tongue as a minister of the grace of the Spirit.
Protagoras of Abdera, son of Artemon or Maeandrius. They have written that he was from Teos. At first he was a porter; but when he had heard Democritus, he was captivated by the love of learning, and devoted himself to philosophy and eloquence, and was first called a sophist. He was the first to invent a contentious type of discourse, and he demanded a fee of one hundred minae from his disciples. For this reason he was called *Logos emmisthos* (mercenary speech). He was a teacher of the orator Isocrates. He was also the first to divide an oration into four parts: *euchē* (prayer), *erōtēsis* (questioning), *apokrisis* (answering), *entolē* (injunction). Others after him into seven [parts]: *diēgēsis* (narration), *erōtēsis*, *apokrisis*, *entolē*, *eisaggelia* D (impeachment), *euchē*, *klēsis* (summons). Alcidamas posits four forms of oration: *phasis* (assertion), *apophasis* (negation), *erōtēsis*, *prosagoreusis* (address). The books of Protagoras were burned by the Athenians because he had once begun in this manner: "Concerning the gods, I am unable to know whether they exist, or whether they do not exist." He was older than the philosopher Plato, and was a teacher of Prodicus, of the Ceians, and of many others.
Protogenes. A Xanthian from Lycia, famous for the art of painting, who painted at Rhodes [a figure of] Bacchus, *Dionysos* (Leopardus, XVI, 2, corrections from Plutarch’s *Demetrius*, p. 898, reads *Ialysos*), an incomparable work, which Demetrius Poliorcetes admired when he was besieging Rhodes for two years, having brought more than a thousand ships and more than 55,000 armed men. Protogenes wrote two books on the art of painting and figures.
Ptolemy, a Cytherian epic poet. He wrote *On the Psalavantha*, which herb he says is endowed with wonderful power.
Claudius Ptolemy, an Alexandrian philosopher, in the time of the Emperor Marcus. He wrote three books on mechanics; *On the Rising and Significations of the Fixed Stars*; *Planisphere*; *Handy Tables*; the Great Astronomus, or *Syntaxis*, and other things.
Ptolemy Pindarion, an Alexandrian grammarian, son of Oroander, a disciple of Aristarchus. He wrote three books of *Homeric Exemplars* (*Hypodeigmatōn*); *On the Homeric Character*; *Against Neothalides concerning diction*; *On the Homeric Utis*; *On the Asteropaeus in Homer*, and others.
Ptolemy, a grammarian, called *Epithēs* because he followed Aristarchus. He was a pupil of Hellanicus the grammarian, who had heard Agathocles, a disciple of Zenodotus of Ephesus. He wrote *On the Plagues in Homer* (*Peri tōn par’ Homērō plēgōn*); *Commentary on the Odyssey*.
Ptolemy, father of the grammarian Aristonicius, and himself a grammarian; both of them practiced the art of grammar at Rome. He wrote *On those things which were similarly said by the Tragedians* (*Homoios eirēmena tois Tragikois*); *On the fifty books of Homer*; *On those things in the poet which are recorded as strange* (*Ta para tō poiētē xena historēmena*); *On those things which are told as wonderful and strange in Homer*; *On the Muses and the Nereids*.
Ptolemy, son of Hephaestion, surnamed *Chennos*, an Alexandrian, a grammarian famous under the emperors Trajan and Hadrian. He wrote *On Paradoxical or Wonderful History*; *The Sphinx*, a historical drama; *Anthomeros*, or the Poem rivaling Homer's twenty-four Rhapsodies, and certain other works.
Ptolemy of Ascalon, a grammarian, who taught at Rome. He wrote *Homeric Prosody on Hellenism*, or fifteen books on the correct method of speech; *On meters*; *On the Aristarchean correction of the Odyssey*; *On the difference of words*; and other grammatical works.
Pulcheria, daughter of Arcadius, not yet fifteen years old, administered the empire most excellently, and educated her brother Theodosius, and thoroughly instructed him in piety toward God and constructed many churches. Nestorius was hateful to Pulcheria, for he was accusing her before Paulinus the Master. Her sisters were Arcadia and Marina. Theodosius often used to subscribe his name to papers without having read them. Thus Pulcheria subjected to him [index: entries preserved]
a small book, in order that he, in accordance with the request, might give her his wife, Eudoxia, to be used as a handmaid, etc.
Pylades, a Cilician from the town of Mistarnis. He wrote *On the Italic Dance*, of which he himself was the inventor; *On the Comic Dance*, which was called *Kordax*; item *On the Tragic Dance*, which was called *Sikinnis*; and *On the Satyric Dance*, which was called *Emmeleia*. (But see Athenaeus I, p. 20; and Kuster's notes 4 and 5, vol. III, p. 239).
Pyrrhon, son of Plistarchus, an Elean, a philosopher in the time of Philip of Macedon, during the 101st Olympiad and beyond. He was first a painter; later, applying his mind to philosophy, he listened to Bryson, a disciple of Clinomachus, then Anaxarchus, a disciple of Metrodorus of Chios, whose master was Democritus the Abderite. He determined that nothing is naturally honorable or base, but that all things are so by custom and law.
Pyrrhon, a Phliasian, son of Timarchus, a disciple of Timon the philosopher.
Pyrrhonians, philosophers who embraced the sect of Pyrrhon, also called Aporetici, Septici, Ephectici, Zetetici, etc. The first author of Scepticism was Homer, who pronounces nothing certain regarding things. There were also seven sages who were Sceptics, whose saying is: "Nothing in excess." Archilochus also, when A he says: "Such is the mind of mortals, as Zeus leads the day for them." And Euripides (in the *Suppliants*): "Why indeed do they say that wretched mortals have wisdom? For we are dependent upon you; we do such things as you happen to desire."
Pythagoras, a Samian, in truth a Tyrrhenian, son of Mnesarchus, a seal-engraver, who as a youth migrated with his father from Tyrrhenia to Samos, where he heard Pherecydes the Syrian, then Hermodamas, grandson of Creophylus, and subsequently Abaris the Hyperborean and Zaretes the Magus. Having been instructed in the disciplines of the Egyptians and Chaldaeans, he returned to Samos, which, when he saw it held by the tyranny of Polycrates, he left for Croton in Italy, and having opened a school there, he had five hundred and more disciples. He had two brothers: the elder, Eunomus; the middle, Tyrrhenus. A slave, Zamolxis, to whom the Getae sacrifice as to Saturn. He took as wife Theano, daughter of Brontinus of Croton, from whom he begat two sons, Telauges and Damon, or as others say, Mnesarchus: also a daughter, Myla, or, as others say, Arignote. Pythagoras wrote only three books: *Paideutikon*, *Politikon*, and a third, which is rather by Lysis of Tarentum, his disciple, who, having fled to Thebes, instructed Epaminondas. Some also attribute the *Golden Verses* to him. (Suidas B then records many things about Pythagoras, his death, philosophy, and symbols, whom one should also consult under the entry *Ηδη*).
Pytheas, an Athenian, an orator, son of a perfume-seller or miller, wrote *Harangues* and *Forensic Orations* and certain other things; he was not numbered, however, among the (ten) orators, being a bold and profligate man, who fled from prison in Athens because of debt to Macedon, and later returned.
*Pythias boē*, a call combined with the sound of the flute, which they call *Pythian*. Hence *pythaulēs*, how they call those who sing to the flute. *Phorion*. A temple of Apollo, founded at Athens, in which they used to place tripods when they had won the competition for the Thargelia chorus.
Python, a Byzantine, an orator, who, having been sent into exile, went to Macedon, and there urged many to treachery, etc. See Kuster's note in Vol. III, p. 237.
Q. Quadratus, a Roman, a historian. He wrote in the Ionian dialect the Roman history in fifteen books, and which he entitled *Chilieteris* (Millennial), which covered the events of a thousand years from the founding of Rome to the Emperor Alexander, son of Mammaea.
Quirinus, a sophist, who was called *Lingua aerarii* (Tongue of the Treasury), whose care was entrusted to him by the emperor.
R. Rhadamanthys, judge of those whose justice has been attested. The oath of Rhadamanthys, mentioned above, *Xylēa omnynai* (to swear by wood), and Lampon. Conf. Kuster, p. 249.
Rhamnus regarding the sages and famous men. For Rhamnus was a village of Attica, in which Antiphon flourished, a famous orator, whom many wished to imitate, and left behind as a proverb for the use of life, that those who were distinguished should be called Rhamnusians. The statue of Rhamnusia Nemesis, which Phidias made and dedicated to the mother of Erectheus (which was called Nemis, and she reigned in that place). Phidias permitted Agoracritus of Paros, his beloved, to inscribe his own name; just as he inscribed on the statue of Zeus, "Pantarces is beautiful." Now C Pantarces was an Argive, the beautiful beloved of the sculptor himself.
*Rharias*. He received the wandering and searching Demeter as a guest, and for this benefit, Ceres taught Triptolemus, son of Celeus, grandson of Rharias, agriculture, and gave him the chariot of winged dragons, by which he was carried while he traversed the earth and taught men agriculture.
Rhapsodes were called those who recited the poems of Homer in theaters, because they held *rhabdous* or rods while doing so. There is also *rhapsōdēsai*, to jest, or simply to speak and to recite.
Rheginus, Xenarchus, son of the mime-writer Sophron, censured them as timid in his comedies, influenced to do this against the tyrant Dionysius. Hence the proverb originated, "More timid than a Rheginian," of those who are timid beyond measure.
Rheginus, a grammarian, wrote a book which is called *Polymnemon*.
*Rhēriarchos*, who speaks oracles, as is to be found in Epicharmus. Or, as Asclepiades in the sixth book of *Tragōdoumenōn* (Things told in tragedy), who knew best of all how to tell certain things.
*Rhētor*. Many decrees have provided that the art of oratory should be used in the senate if anyone should offer his opinion on a matter which did not personally concern his own private fortune. D
A Rhianus, of Bena, a city of Crete, or as others say, of Ithome, a city of Messenia. He was first a keeper of the palaestra and a slave; later, having been instructed in letters, he became a grammarian and a contemporary of Eratosthenes. He wrote *Emmetra poemata* (16); and *Heracliadem* in fourteen books.
Rhinthon, a Tarentine, a comic poet, the author of hilarotragedy or phlyacography. He was the son of a potter and lived under Ptolemy I. His tragic and comic plays are thirty-eight. (Conf. Kuster, p. 260, note 8.)
Rufus, of Ephesus, a physician who flourished with Crito under Trajan. He wrote very many books, from which are: *On the Regimen of Life* in 5 books; *On the Diet of Sailors*; *On the Medicaments for Wounds*; *On the Management of Joints*; *On Figs*; *On Ancient Medicine*; *On Milk*; *On Wine*; *On Honey.*
Rutilius Rufus lived in the time of Scipio, was a companion in military expeditions, and reported the events that took place there; at that time he was a military tribune, as Appian testifies in his *Roman History*.
*Rhômos* in the Abderite dialect signifies a shape. Demosthenes of Abdera used other words—not Greek—as he used *tropê* to mean position, and *diathigên* to mean order.
[S] Sabazius, called Bacchus, from the clamor of those celebrating the orgies. For to the Barbarians, *sabazein* is to shout *sabazein*, and they call the shouting *sabasmon*. There are also the *Saboi* locations, consecrated to Bacchus, and the priests of Bacchus, Mnaseas the Patarenian, says that Sabazius is the son of Bacchus. (Suid. s.v. *Saboi*.)
Sabinus, a sophist, who lived under the Emperor Hadrian. He wrote *Introduction and Argument of the Subject Matter of Declamations* in four books, a *Commentary on Thucydides*, on Acusilaus, and others. Also certain other narrations. (His brother Sergius is listed below, *Sergios*.)
Sacas, a tragic poet; and *Sace*, a Thracian tribe.
Ammonius, an Alexandrian philosopher, byname Sacas, who changed from a Christian to a gentile, as Porphyry says.
Salustius, a sophist, wrote a commentary on Demosthenes, Herodotus, and others.
Salustius of Mopsuestia, a physician, wrote on medicine under the Emperor Tiberius.
Salustius, son of Basilides, from Syria, and Theoclea of Emesa, came to Alexandria with Isidore. Being educated in the precepts of eloquence by Eunoius the sophist—who was in Emesa at the time—he learned all the public orations of Demosthenes and wrote orations not inferior to them. He also said that he had learned by heart eight books of the *History of Thucydides*—a fellow citizen of our own (these are the words of Damascius)—yet he could say nothing worthy of being heard. Some also say he learned the whole of Demosthenes by heart six times, but that he could not even open his mouth to deliver any oration B and have it be agreeable. Salustius used to say that for men it is not easy, but rather impossible, to be like Heraclitus—a heckler of the mob and a salty mocker. He also called the fifth virtue "true opinion concerning the gods," which sometimes appears to be present even in the most wicked. He philosophized in the Cynic fashion, etc.
Salustius, praetorian prefect under Julian, etc.
*Samion demos polymammatos* (The people of Samos are full of learning), said by Aristophanes in his *Babylonians*; either because the Samians, having been reduced to extremities by tyrants, granted the rights of citizenship to slaves due to a shortage of citizens, as Aristotle reports in his *Constitution of the Samians*; or because of the twenty-four letters first invented among the Samians by Callistratus, as Andron says in his *Tripod*. But Archinus, son of Athenaeus, during the archonship of Euclides, persuaded the Athenians to use the Ionian letters. Aristophanes, moreover, taught the comedy *Babylonians* through Callistratus twenty years before Euclides, under the archon Eucleides. Concerning him, however, who persuaded the Athenians of this matter, Theopompus writes. Others assert the cause is that the Athenians, in war, used to mark the Samians they captured with the stigma of an owl, while the Samians marked the Athenians with a *samaina*, which is a bireme ship first fabricated by Polycrates, the tyrant of the Samians, as Lysimachus says in the second book of his *Nostoi*, or *On the Return*.
Sanchoniathon, a Tyrian philosopher who lived in the time of the Trojan War, wrote *On the Physiology of Hermes*, which was translated (into the Greek language); C *Ancient Institutions of the Tyrians in the Phoenician Language*; *Egyptian Theology*, and other works.
Sandon, son of Hellanicus, a philosopher. He wrote *Arguments on Orpheus*, one book.
Sannyrion, an Athenian, a comic poet. His dramas: *Gelôs, Danai, Iô, Psychastai*, as Athenaeus writes in his *Deipnosophistae*.
Sappho, daughter of Simon, or Eunominus (or Eumenius), or Eirigyius, or Ecrytus, or Semus, or Camonis, or Etarchus, or finally Scamandronymus, her father, and Clis, her mother. She was a Lesbian, born in Eresos, and a lyric poet. She lived in the 42nd Olympiad, at which time Alcaeus, Stesichorus, and Pittacus flourished. Her brothers were Larychus, Charaxus, and Eurigius. She married Cercolas, a very wealthy man from Andros, from whom she had a daughter, Clis. Her friends were Atthis, Telesippa, and Megara; her pupils were Anagora the Milesian, Congyla the Colophonian, and Eunica the Salaminian. She wrote *Nine Books of Lyric Carmina*, and she was the first to invent the plectrum. She also wrote *Epigrams, Elegies, Iambi,* and *Monodies*.
Sappho, Lesbian, Mytileneian, a psaltery player, concerning whom see above under *Phaon*.
Sarapion, Aelius the rhetor, an Alexandrian. He wrote *On the Vices of Declamations*; *Akroaseôn*, or *Books of Auscultations* in seven volumes; *Panegyric on the Emperor Hadrian*; *Consultations for the Alexandrians*; and *Rectene*.
A
*Plato*, who banished Homer from his Republic, and other matters. Item, *On the Art of Oratory*.
Sarapion was almost exclusively accustomed to possess and read Orpheus; he would then interrogate Isidore regarding the questions that arose, for he was a man instructed in the highest knowledge of theology, whom alone he recognized as an intimate and whom he admitted, nor did he judge any other of his capacities—beyond two or three books, among which was the poetry of Orpheus—as worthy, thinking that he had discerned in it that Saturnian life celebrated in the fables of the poets. For that Chiron, celebrated in the writings of the poets, consisted rather in the boundary of the Saturnian and Jovian reign, from which he is handed down as being of two forms. At the same time, another man came from Alexandria, standing at the entire diameter—or more, if it is permitted so to speak—from Sarapion: for the latter was indeed Saturnian or Jovian, but the former was Typhonian, a beast more cunning than Typhon. For no one of the men now living is ignorant of what sort of mind and what sort of fortune Pamprepius possessed.
*Sarapous*. Alcaeus called Pittacus a *Sarapoda*, "hand-footed," "boastful," "paunchy," "gluttonous," "dark-eyed," and "unwashed." (From Laertius, book I, c. 81).
*Scindapsus*, a musical instrument. Regarding Zeno the Citiean, Timon says: "His pouch was small, and he had a mind smaller than a *scindapsus*," i.e., "he had a mind smaller than a *scindapsus*," etc. B
*Scrips*. Crantor, the philosopher, said that the verses of a certain poet were full of *scrips*.
*Scirtalus*. Diogenes the Sinopian, now an old man, was captured by Scirtalus, a pirate.
*Scleras*. "A song of a bard," a tribute of a harsh prophet, of the Sphinx—that is, "difficult" (in Sophocles, *Oedipus Tyrannus*).
*Scholia*, convivial songs. *A scholion of Melitus*, of Carian flute-playing. This Melitus was the tragic poet who accused Socrates. He is berated by the comic poets as being frigid in poetry and possessed of wicked morals. *Carica*, however, are mournful lyric songs. C
*Scholion*, a song of a few verses. Timocreon the Rhodian, an epic poet (17), wrote a *scholion* against wealth, the beginning of which is: "O blind wealth," etc. "O blind wealth, would that you had never been seen on earth, nor in the sea, nor on the continent, but that you had inhabited Tartarus and Acheron! For you are the cause of all evils among men." Similar to this is the decree written by Pericles, by which the Megarians were barred from the forum, the sea, and the continent.
*Scholion*. Tyrannion wrote a *Commentary on the Oblique Meter* (*Peri tou skoliou metrou*), which was proposed to him by C. Caesar.
*Scopas*, the praetor of the Aetolians, frustrated in the leadership, for the sake of which he had chiefly dared to write laws, was thinking of Alexandria, thinking that he would easily satisfy his own lack of resources and immense desire for wealth. But he was insatiable, etc.
*Scopelianus*, a Clazomenian sophist, who lived in the time of Nerva and taught eloquence at Smyrna, a listener of Nicetas, equal to Apollonius of Tyana, to whom Apollonius also wrote letters.
*Scythes*. Anacharsis was a Scythian, but born of a Greek mother, and therefore skilled in two languages, who gave laws to the Scythians. D
*Scylax* of Carianda, from the city of Carianda, near Halicarnassus, a mathematician and musician. He wrote a *Periplus* of the places beyond the pillars of Hercules; a *Period of the Earth* concerning Heraclides, king of the Mylassians; and an *Antigraphê* against the history of Polybius.
*Scytale*, a Laconian letter. The timbers were two, polished and oblong, one of which the Lacedaemonian ephors kept; the other they gave to the general when they sent him to war; and as often as they wished to send him any message, they wrapped the rod with a white thong, and on it they wrote the mandate, then they unwound the thong and gave it to the courier to be carried away. Dioscorides, in his work *On Customs*, reports that usurers divided the *scytale* with witnesses present, and in each of its parts wrote the contract, and one part they gave to the witnesses and reserved the other for themselves. They used the *scytale* in another manner, as Aristotle writes in the *Ithacan Republic*.
*Secundus* the Athenian, a sophist (not the one who was called Plinius). *Epiurus* (18), or "the Clavus" (nail), was so called because he was a joiner’s son, and was a teacher of sophists. He wrote *Declamations*.
*Seleucus* of Alexandria, a grammarian, surnamed Homericus, who taught eloquence at Rome. He wrote *Commentaries* on nearly the entire poet: *On the Difference of Synonyms*; *On Proverbs* used among the Alexandrians; *On the Gods*, in one hundred books; and other items [also *Miscellanea* and *Glossae*, and others, of which see Kuster, note 6, tom. III, page 297].
*Seleucus* of Emesa, a grammarian, wrote *Aspaleutika* ("Piscatoria"), in hexameter verses, in four books (19); *Commentary on the Lyrics*; and *Parthica*, in two books. I have found another Seleucus added to these, but he had written no books.
*Sellius* or *Sillius*, who is also called Homerus, a grammarian before Menander. (Supra, on Homeus.)
*Semus* of Delos, a grammarian, wrote *Eliaca*, in eight books; *Periodoi*, in two books; *On Paros*, in one book; *On Paeans*, in which work he enumerates the types of musicians, *autocabaloi*, *phalloi*, *phallophoroi*, etc. (Supra, on *Phallophoroi*, where *autocabdali* is read, not *autocabali*.)
A Serenus Aelius, an Athenian, a grammarian, wrote an *Epitome of the work of Philo on cities* and who *were illustrious in each*, in three books; and an *Epitome of the commentaries of Philoxenus on Homer*, in one book.
Sergius the Zeugmatensian, son of Aphthonius, from the class of advocates, who held the position of prefect, *leading his lineage from [those who had been] prefects*, and was a praetorian, a consular, and a patrician. He wrote an *Epitaph on his brother, the sophist Sabinus*, and another book for the advocates, *Against Aristenetus*.
*Sellesthai* (to boast falsely), a saying from Aeschines, son of Selles, who, being poor, falsely boasted that he was rich. They also call a glorious person a *sellos*, and to boast is *sellizein*.
Severianus, of Damascus, one of the primary lineage, son of Auxentius Callinicus, originating from the Romans, who inhabited Alexandria. Being instructed in poetry, oratory, and Roman civil law, he also desired to give himself to study philosophy with Proclus, had not his father, who preferred him for the patronage of lawsuits, forbidden it. After his father died, he went to Athens, where he dreamed of Proclus, having ascended a mountain peak as if on a vehicle, and seemed to drive the mountain itself like a charioteer. Thence, by fate and inclination, he preferred to approach the magistracy and the pursuit of a blessed leisure, based more on philosophy. When later he had fallen into the hatred of Ardaburius, son of that great Aspar, he suffered much from him; he was a man most holy and, over and above the measure of religion, a worshiper of the Greeks. He narrated to me the Isocratean orations—ones more copious and dealing with the republic—not in that artificial and sophistic way, but in a prudent and philosophical manner. The same man inflamed Julian, my brother, B who was younger in age, with a zeal for eloquence, so that he ordered him to learn by heart both the poets and the celebrated orators. And while he approved of other poets to some degree, he never ceased when taking Callimachus into his hands to disparage this African poet. Indeed, he was so offended by his reading that he would sometimes spit upon his book. The Emperor Zeno promised him a position second only to himself if he would be willing to become a Christian; and he recited to us a letter containing those promises, but, gaining nothing from them in his own estimation, he read it. He also rebuked Arcadius of Larisa through a letter. For Severianus was sharp and prudent in writing letters.
Severus, *Seueros*, a Roman sophist under the Emperor Anthemius, went to Alexandria and spent his life in philosophical leisure, abundantly instructed in a variety of books. He knew, if anyone else did, how to attract to himself men who were excellent in learning.
Severus (the emperor) left nothing of human or divine matters uninvestigated, and scrutinized even the most hidden things. And for this reason he took all the books that contained any secret, and whatever he could find from all the sanctuaries, he took away and enclosed in the monument of Alexander, so that he was the only one who attained clarity, and no one else could see his body, nor read what was written in those books.
Severus, *Seueros*. This man rose up after that unhappy Eutyches, and when he had occupied the throne of Antioch by evil arts, he endeavored to stabilize the heresy of Manes, Apollinaris, and Eutyches. Having been expelled from the church, he fell upon the Alexandrians, a fickle people, like a whirlwind and a storm. When, however, another storm rose up against him and the people there as well, he confounded and disturbed everything. For a certain Julian of Halicarnassus, bishop of Asia, dissipated them. Compare above, in *Julian*.
Sextus, of Chaeronea, nephew of Plutarch, a philosopher who lived in the times of the Emperor M. Antoninus, a disciple of Herodotus of Philadelphia, and addicted to the Pyrrhonian sect (24). He was in such honor with the emperor that he would sit in judgment with him. He wrote *Ethics*, and also the *Skeptica* in ten books. After the death of Commodus, a certain man dared to call himself Sixtus, and to claim for himself his property and dignity; being often questioned by many, he answered skillfully. But when a stubborn person asked him some things pertaining to Greek learning, of which he was ignorant, he wandered far from the point, being unable even to understand what was being said. So much did nature give him a countenance similar to his, and in other things he mimicked him by art, but he was not trained in the same learning.
Sextus, an African (22), a philosopher, wrote *Skeptica or Pyrrhonia* in ten books.
Sibylla Delphica, whom they also called Diana. She lived before the Trojan War, she wrote oracles in verse.
The father of the Chaldean Sibyl was Berosus, her mother was Erymanthe.
Sibylla, daughter of Apollo and Lamia, or of Aristocrates and Hydole, or of Crinagoras, or, as Hermippus says, of Theodorus, an Erythraean, born in a place of the Erythraeans which was called Batti, now a city founded there, Erythrae. Some report she was Sicilian, others Sardian, Gergethian, Rhodian, Libyssan, Lucanian, or finally Samian. She was after the capture of the city of Troy by 483 years. She wrote these books: *De palpitationibus* (On Palpitations); *Carmina* (Songs); *Oracula* (Oracles). She is also said to have been the first to have discovered the three-cornered type of lyre.
Sibylla Helissa wrote prophecies and oracles in verse.
Sibylla Colophonia, who was called Lampusa, descended from Calchas. She also wrote prophecies and oracles in verse, and other things.
Sibylla Thessala, also called Manto, who traced her lineage from Tiresias.
Sibylla Phrygia, by some called Sarbis, by C Kuster (vol. III, page 299), using the arguments of Jonsius, III, cap. 12, *History of Philosophy*, has demonstrated at length. Harl.
(20) These are the words of Damascius. (21) Kuster (vol. III, pag. 299), using the arguments of Jonsius, III, cap. 12, *Hist. philos.*, has late demonstrated that this Sextus, *nephew of Plutarch* is not the same (as some opined) as Sextus Pyrrhonius or Empiricus. HARL. (22) This is Sextus Empiricus. HARL.
by others as Cassandra, by others as Taraxandras, and she herself wrote oracles.
The Cumaean Sibyl and the Thesprotian Sibyl. These also wrote oracles.
The Chaldean Sibyl, or Hebrew or Persian, by her proper name Sambethe, tracing her lineage from the most blessed Noah. She predicted things which are said to have happened to Alexander of Macedon, of which Nicanor, who wrote the *Life of Alexander*, makes mention. The same woman, by the instinct of the Divinity, predicted many things regarding the Lord Christ and His advent. B With her, the rest of the Sibyls agree, except that of this one there are twenty-four books containing predictions concerning every nation and region. That her verses are found to be imperfect and disjointed is not the fault of the prophetess herself, but of the scribes, who were unable to keep up with the speed of the speech while writing, or were even unlearned and unskilled in grammar. For memory would cease simultaneously with the inspiration and the things that were spoken. And this is the reason why both imperfect verses are found and the sense is halting, whether this happened by the most wise counsel of God, so that her oracles might not be known by many and unworthy people, or whether the long passage of time, as with many others, was also the cause of this matter. Furthermore, the obscurity of the things said by the Sibyl, and the frequent transcription of her books, it is no wonder if they produced confusion of both sense and meter.
There were ten Sibyls in various places and times. The first, Chaldean, who is also Persian, called by the proper name Sambethe. The second, Libyan. The third, Delphic, born at Delphi. The fourth, Italian, who was born in the Italian city, Cimmeria. The fifth, Erythraean, who prophesied before the Trojan War. The sixth, Samian, called by the proper name Phyto, of whom Eratosthenes wrote. The seventh, Cumaean, who was also called Amalthea and Hierophile. The eighth, Hellespontian, born in the village of Marmissos, near the small town of Gergythion (which places were once included within the boundaries of the Trojan region), in the times of Solon and Cyrus. The ninth, Phrygian. The tenth, Tiburtine, called Albunea. They say, however, that the Cumaean Sibyl brought nine books of her oracles to Tarquinius Priscus, then king of the Romans: which, when he refused them, she burned two of them. (Compare, however, Lactantius, *De falsa religione*, lib. 1, cap. 6, § 7 ff.)
Sibyl is a Roman word, which if you interpret it, signifies a prophetess. Therefore, as many have written, there were ten Sibyls in diverse places and times. — *Sibyllāz*, is held by love and desire for oracles, or she raves and wishes to prophesy; or she dreams of oracles; or she is arrogant, etc. — *Sibyntios* or *Sibyrtios*, a reader and slave of Theodectes of Phaselis, who was the first among slaves to profess the art of rhetoric. He wrote an *Art of Rhetoric*. — *Sidērean psychēn*, iron mind or inexorable. — A certain Glaucus, a Samian, C first discovered the welding of iron; and a proverb concerning those things which are easily done.
Silvanus, a philosopher, who in other respects was upright and holy, but in his manners simple and open.
*Sillainein*, "to mock someone with twisted lips," and *(myllazein)* to move the eyes while mocking. For *sillos* is a jest, or a false statement, and the one who writes *sillo* is called a *sillographos*, such as was Timon of Phlius, a Pyrrhonian philosopher.
Simmias of Rhodes, a grammarian. He wrote *Books of Glosses III*; *Books of Miscellaneous Poems VI*. From the beginning he was a Samian, afterward truly sent as a leader of the Samian colony to the island, Amorgos; he founded cities on Amorgos, Minoa, and Arcesine. He lived 406 years, after the Trojan War. According to some he first wrote *Iambics*, and other diverse things. Also *Origins of the Samians*.
Simmias of Thebes, a philosopher, a disciple of Socrates. He wrote *On Wisdom*, *On Friendship*, *On Truth*, *On Music*, *On That Which Is To Be Desired*, *On That Which Is To Be Avoided*, *On the Care of the Soul*, and also other philosophical works.
Simocattes, a surname of Theophylactus Simocatta.
Simonides, son of Leopold, from Julius, of the island of Ceos, states, a lyric poet, later than Stesichorus, and surnamed Melicertes because of the sweetness [of his voice]. He discovered the art of memory, and also long and double letters, and the third note of the lyre. He lived until Olympiad LV, although others refer him to Olympiad LXII. He extended his life until Olympiad LXXVIII, and reached the age of LXXXIX. In the Doric dialect he described *The Battles of Cambyses and Darius*. Also *The Naval Battle at Artemisium* in elegiac verses; also *The Naval Battle at Salamis* in elegiacs. In addition to these he wrote *Threnodies*, *Encomia*, *Epigrams*, *Paeans*, *Tragedies*, and other things. In these Simonides excelled, if anyone else did, in the power of memory: if he remained silent for the most part, he revolved much in his mind; and when he was in his hundredth year he surpassed himself in the strength of his memory. The same also sang a *Hymn on Memory*, in which he says that all things are consumed by time, but time itself, by the benefit of memory, is exempt from old age and is immortal. He is said to have been the first to write a poem for pay. For he had two chests, one empty of favors, the other full of (reward), etc. His saying: *Anankē oude theoi machontai*, etc.
Simonides of Ceos, grandson from the daughter of the former, surnamed Melicertes, lived before the Peloponnesian War. He wrote *Genealogies in III books*, *Inventions in III books*.
Simonides of Magnesia, son of Sipylus, an epic poet, who lived in the times of Antiochus the Great. He wrote of his deeds and the battle with the Gauls, in which the army of the latter was defeated by elephants.
Simonides of Carystus or Eretria, an epic poet. Confer Allatius, *De Simeonibus*, page 296 ff.
A Citieo, who founded the Stoic school, lived in the 125th Olympiad. Others write that Bryson was not a pupil of Socrates, but of Euclid. Bryson, moreover, heard Pyrrho, from whom come the Pyrrhonians. Furthermore, Socrates had as pupils: Alcibiades, Critobulus, Xenomedes, Apollodorus, Critias, Athenians; also Crito, Simon, Eumarus the Phliasian; Simmias the Theban; Terpsion the Megarian; Evenus, Chaerephon. Theodorus also, nicknamed the Atheist, heard Socrates, and teaching that all things are indifferent, he founded the Theodorean sect. Socrates cultivated that part of philosophy which concerns morals and virtues, and, while already an old man, he learned to play the cithara from Conon, and being mocked by some, he said that saying of Solon: «’Οψιμαθὴς μᾶλλον ἢ ἀμαθὴς / Præstat sero, quam nunquam discere» (It is better to learn late than never). He said a certain daemon conversed with him familiarly. Aristophanes first attacked him in his written *Clouds*, as one who corrupted the youth, and called him an atheist because he swore by the dog and the plane tree. Afterwards Anytus and Melitus accused him and brought him to trial. In the estimation of the penalty, however, Socrates said he deserved to be provided for publicly in the Prytaneum. But they condemned him to death. He was in chains for a long time, until the sacred ship, B *theoria*, returned from Delos. When Crito urged flight, he refused to flee, saying that laws must not be violated. After drinking the hemlock, he remembered a vow and said, "Sacrifice a cock to Asclepius." A certain man, named Cyrsas, of the nation of the Chians, came to Athens intending to converse with Socrates, to whom, while sleeping near the tomb of Socrates, he appeared in a dream and conversed with him. — Socrates is called a *Melius* by Aristophanes, that is, an atheist, because Diagoras the Melian was infamous as a hater and enemy of the gods. That Diagoras was initially pious, but later, after being wronged, he fell into impiety and denied that the gods existed. Wherefore the Athenians, being indignant, visited evils upon the Melian. There was also Aristagoras, a dithyrambic poet of Melos, who was judged very impious because he had divulged the Eleusinian mysteries. From that time on, the comic poets attacked the Melians as impious.
C Academia is so called (and its followers are called Academics even up to Aristotle). For he opened a school in a certain garden situated outside the city, and from his «κατ’ αὐτὸν περιπάτου» (walking about with him), the *peripatos* or place of walking which was in that garden, he will call his disciples Peripatetics; also Aristippus, the Cyrenaic, author of the school and sect of the Cyrenaics; Phaedo the Elean, from whom comes the Eliac sect, later, while Menedemus was teaching at Eretria, called the Eretrian. — From this Pyrrho proceeded Antisthenes, who founded the Cynic sect; Euclid the Megarian, from whom comes the Megaric, which is the same as that of Clinomachus, Euclid's disciple, called Dialectic; Xenophon, son of Gryllus; Aeschines, Lysanias the Sphettian; Cebes, the Theban; Glaucus the Athenian; Bryson. Heracleotes, who introduced contentious dialectic, D which, along with Eucline(?), Clinomachus increased: and when he had had many followers, it ended in Zeno.
Solon, son of Execestides, an Athenian, philosopher, legislator, and demagogue, who lived in the XLVII or LVI Olympiad. Sought by the plots of the tyrant Pisistratus, he withdrew to Cilicia, and founded a city, which he called Solos after his own name. Others say that Solos in Cyprus also received its name from him, and that he died in Cyprus. He wrote Laws for the Athenians, which they call *Axones*, because they were written on wooden axes; also an elegiac poem, which is entitled *Salamis*; Precepts of morals, likewise in elegiac verses, and other things. He was one of those who are called the seven wise men. His are: "Nothing in excess," and: "Know thyself." Overcome by the prayers of his friends for those oppressed by debt, he abolished the old debt records. His counsel and craft against the Cirrhaeans. (From Pausanias, *Phocica*, p. 684.)
Sopater, of Apamea, a sophist and philosopher, a disciple of Iamblichus, killed by Constantine.
A Sophocles, an Athenian, tragic and lyric poet, descended from that ancient Sophocles. He lived after the tragic Pleiad. His plays are fifteen in number.
Wise (is) the enchanter, skilled in incantations. Ps. LVIII, 3. Oracle: Wise (is) Sophocles, wiser (is) Euripides, Of all men, Socrates (is) wisest.
Sophron, a Syracusan. Son of Agathocles and Damnasylis, who lived in the times of Xerxes and Euripides. He wrote mimes for men and mimes for women in prose and the Doric dialect, which they say Plato, the philosopher, constantly read, so much so that he would sometimes even fall asleep while reading them.
Sophron, a comic poet (erroneously distinguished by Suidas from the former). Of his dramas, *The Mother-in-law* is mentioned, according to Athenaeus in the *Deipnosophistae*.
Soranus, son of Menander and Phoebe, an Ephesian physician, who stayed in Alexandria and practiced the medical art under the emperors Trajan and Hadrian, and composed very many excellent books.
Soranus, an Ephesian, a younger physician, who wrote *On the Diseases of Women* in four books; *Lives of Physicians and Sects and Works* in ten books, and other miscellaneous things. Asclepiodotus, a philosopher and skilled in the medical art, had no regard for more recent physicians except Jacob; but among the ancients, after Hippocrates, (he valued) Soranus the Cilician, known as Mallotes.
Susanna. Against Sextus Africanus, Origen wrote a book and refuted his arguments by which he attacked the book of Susanna.
Sosibius, a Laconian, a grammarian, one of those who are called B *Epilitikoi* (24). (He wrote various works) in which he also records this: that there is a certain type of comedy that is proper to the Dicelistai and the Mimeloi, called *Mipeloi*. (He wrote) about the ancient Mimes in Laconia, *On the Mimes in Laconia*, and other things.
Sosiphanes, son of Sosicles, a tragic poet, taught seventy-three plays, and won seven victories. He is one of those seven who are called the Pleiad. He lived during the final times of Philip or Alexander of Macedon. He died in the CXI or CXIV Olympiad.
Sositheus, a Syracuasan or Athenian, or rather an Alexandrian from Alexandria in the Troad, one of the Pleiad, a rival of Homer, a tragic poet, son of Myrus of Byzantium, who flourished in the CLXIV Olympiad. He wrote poems and other things in prose.
Sotades, a Byzantine, a philosopher, as Aristotle reports in the sixth book of his *Philosophy*.
Sotades, an Athenian, a comic poet of the Middle Comedy.
Sotades, a Cretan, from Maronea, possessed by a demon, a writer of iambics. He wrote *Phlyakes* or *Kinaidoi* (lewd songs) in the Ionic dialect, whence C those who write in such a manner are called Sotic in tone.
(24) Those who resolve difficult questions as they are proposed.
A *Stasimon*, a genre of poetry which dancers used to sing while standing still.
*Stauros* (Cross). In the northern part of the forum a cross is situated, like the one which Constantine the Great saw in the sky, covered in gold and having round spheres at its tips. In the same place statues of his children in gold could be seen. Under the Emperor Theodosius the Great, when the temples of the pagans were being destroyed, hieroglyphic letters were found in the temple of Serapis, having the shape of a cross. When those among the pagans who had become Christians saw these, they said that the Cross, in the opinion of those skilled in hieroglyphic letters, signified the life to come.
Stesichorus, son of Euphorbus or Euphemus, or Euclides, or Hesiod, was a Himeraean from Himera, a city of Sicily. Others report that he was born in Matauria, a city of Italy. Others say [he was from] Pallantium, a city of Arcadia, and that as a fugitive he migrated to Catana, where he died and was buried before the gate which was called Stesichorean after him. He was younger than Aleman the lyric poet, and he was born in the 37th Olympiad. He B flourished in the 56th Olympiad. He had a brother named Mamertinus, skilled in geometry, and Helianaetes, a legislator. He was a lyric poet, and his poems, written in the Doric dialect, comprised 26 books. It is said that he lost his sight for writing a vituperation against Helen, then, having been warned in a dream, he regained his sight on account of his palinode. When he was first called Tisias, he took the name Stesichorus, *dia to stēnai choron* ("because of establishing a chorus"), because he was the first to institute a chorus accompanied by the song of the lyre.
Stilpo, of Megara, a philosopher who lived under Ptolemy I; he was a disciple of Pasicles the Theban, who had heard his brother, Crates, and Dioclides of Megara; this man in turn was a disciple of Euclides, the pupil of Plato. He presided over the Megarian school, and wrote C not fewer than twenty dialogues.
*Stoa* (Porch), a portico in which the Stoics, or *Stoikoi*—who were previously called Zenonians—used to teach in Athens. This was previously called *Peisianakteios*, then it was called *Poikilē* ("Painted") after the painting by Polygnotus. Zeno of Citium used to walk about in it and discourse. Under the 30 tyrants, however, one thousand four hundred citizens were killed there.
Strabo, of Amaseia, philosopher and geographer. (See below, Strato.)
Strato, a comic poet of the Middle Comedy. Among his plays was *Phoinix*.
Strato, of Lampsacus, a philosopher, the disciple and successor of Theophrastus, son of Arcesitas or Arcesius, with the surname *Physicus* ("the Naturalist"), because he was devoted to the contemplation of physics more than all others; he was the teacher of Ptolemy Philadelphus and wrote many books.
Strato, of Amaseia, a philosopher who lived under Tiberius Caesar. He wrote geography in 7 books. (Actually, Strabo wrote 17 books.)
Strattis, an Athenian, a tragic poet. His plays are:
A *Anthroporestes*, *Atalante*, *Agathoi* (or *Argyriou Aphanismos*), *Iphigenia*, *Callipides*, *Cinesias*, *Limnonomedes*, *Macedones*, *Medea*, *Troilus*, *Phoenissae*, *Philoctetes*, *Chrysippus*, *Pausanias*, *Psychastae*, as witnessed in *Deipnosophistae*.
Studios, a notable man, who founded that most celebrated monastery (in Constantinople). It was formerly the Church of the Catholics, but later it was turned into a monastery. The same Studios, a prince, also founded the house of the Archangel Michael, and of him they say in heroic verse: *Studios built a glorious home, and quickly* *He laboured, receiving his reward, having taken the prophetic rod.*
Suetonius (Seuotonios), surnamed Tranquillus, a Roman grammarian.
Superianus, a sophist, Isaurian in race, a disciple of Lachares, slow to learn, who at more than thirty years of age finally began to read the books of orators B and to apply his mind to the liberal arts. Yet, by his own persistent labor and by the stripes he endured, which he himself would invite in the baths, he learned what masters demand from children. Thus, in the famous city of Athens, he turned out a sophist, not much inferior to Lachares in glory. For I know that Lachares the sophist was made by diligence, while he—to me a very accurate man—seemed slower in talent. His appearance also reflected the man, and as for studies indeed, he seemed slow, but he was handsome and of such a sort as to promise virtue, and he was worthy of being called a philosopher rather than a sophist; for otherwise, Lachares would have been the man dear to God, who even received back his lost sight through his favour. (From Damascius.)
Sybaritica apophthegmata, from Epicharmus. Sybaritica fabulae, that is, Aesopic. And the proverb: "Sybarite through the street," against those who walk with a proud gait; "Sybarite luxuries," especially that of the Mindyrides, etc.
*Sygchoretisesthai*, to approach someone, that is, to live familiarly with someone. Zenon, the Citiean, when consulting the oracle on how he might live a blessed life, the god replied: "Live familiarly with the dead"; if you live familiarly with the dead, that is with the writings and books of the ancients.
Symeon, that miraculous man (who is commonly called Stylites). When the monks of Egypt heard that he was standing on a pillar, condemning it as an unusual thing, they (at first) excluded him from their body for having done this. But later, having learned of the man’s life and his modest spirit, they received him back into their communion. To him, the Emperor Marcian came in the habit of a private citizen.
*Sy de theoi makares* (But you, blessed gods). This the rhapsodists were accustomed to chant; as the kitharodes, "Hail, O King." For such are the epiphonemata used by the ancient poets.
Synesius, of Pentapolis in the Thebaid, which is situated in Libya, was a man of the priestly order. He wrote various books, both grammatical and philosophical, as well as orations of political and panegyrical standing, or of the demonstrative kind. Likewise, an *Encomium on Baldness*, and orations on wonderful Providence in the Greek style; and many other various little works, and furthermore Epistles, which are held in great esteem by everyone.
*Syntacterios* (Farewell-speech writer), he was called Origenes, because he had written many books (27).
Syra (28), among the Romans, a divine epistle.
Syrianus, an Alexandrian, a philosopher, who presided over the Athenian school and the *Diatribe*; he was the teacher of Proclus, who was his successor. He wrote *Commentaries on the whole of the books of Aristotle VII*; *On the books of Plato IV*; *On the Orphic Theology II*; *On Proclus, On the Homeric Gods*; *Concensus of Orpheus, Pythagoras and Plato*; *On Oracles, X books*, and certain other narrations. Isidorus, a philosopher, as Damascius says, did not cease to examine most accurately the writings of all the ancients; but after Plato, he gave his attention most of all to the friends and companions of Jamblichus, the best of whom he affirmed to be his fellow-citizen Syrianus, the teacher of Proclus. He judged, however, that one who did not concern himself with the collection of true knowledge was to be despised.
T
*Tabla* (Table). The name of a game, which Palamedes found with great wisdom, so that the army of the Greeks might have something with which to while away the time. In this game, the board is the terrestrial world. There are twelve lines, the circle of the zodiac. A dicebox and in it seven dice, the seven planets (stellar bodies) revolving; the sky, from which many good and evil things occur to all men.
*Ta d’ ek tripodos* (Those things from the tripod), said of very ancient things. When Aristoclea, who was the Pythian, is said to have had the matter as her brother, and Apollo to have edited the oracles which she had recorded as true. Concerning Apollonius C of Tyana, Philostratus says: No one heard him speaking copiously nor ironically, nor boasting before his audience, but as if from a tripod he spoke new things, and it seems so to me.
*Ta ek tripodos* (Those things from the tripod). Apollo the soothsayer uses it on account of the three times of things. Homer, "The things that are, and the things that will be, and the things that were before." Who knows the present, and future, and past. The golden tripod ceased for Apollo, having been offered first by fishermen to the wise men, but when they rejected it, it was given to Apollo, as to the most wise, whom he had ordered to give the oracle.
*Ta ek ton amaxon skommata* (Jests from the carts), so called from *plaustris*. In Athens at the festival of the *Choum*, those who went about feasting would lash out at passersby with jibes and insults.
(27) Suidas is mistaken, with Origenes as the author according to Epiphanius; he would have been called *Syntactes*, not *Syntacterios*, notes Kuster ad Vol. III, p. 408. HARL.
(28) Suidas seems to have written *Syra* incorrectly for *Sacra*, the Holy [Epistle].
A and used to perform [them] later at the Lenaean festival. Women of the Athenians, carried in a wagon, when they went to the great mysteries at Eleusis, used to mock one another on the road. The Alexandrians once used to perform a lustration of souls. For on certain days men carried on wagons, to whom this task was entrusted, went through the whole city and, standing where they pleased and stopping at a house, wherever it pleased them, used to speak from the wagon, not uttering false insults, but reproaching true crimes, etc.
*Ta epi koskinou* (At the sieve), spoken of those who divine by means of a sieve and a tripod or gold. *Ta Nannakou* (The things of Nannacus), supra, Nannacus. *Tantalou* (The things of Tantalus), supra, Isaeus. *Ta Samion* (The things of the Samians), supra, Samians.
Tatianus. He died a martyr under Julian the Apostate (along with Theodulus), as Suid. relates in *Amachios*.
*Taurophagos* (Bull-eater), Bacchus, because to those who sacrificed for the dithyramb a bull was given as a prize. Others say Aristarchus is mistaken, thinking the bull was the prize for them. Aristophanes called Cratinus a *taurophagos*, either as a glutton or as a lover of wine, and thus a Bacchant, or because Cratinus's mother was initiated into the rites of Bacchus the bull-eater, etc.
Taurus, of Berytus, a Platonic philosopher, who lived under Antoninus Pius. He wrote *On the difference between the dogmas of Plato and Aristotle*; *On physical and incorporeal things*, and many others.
Telauges (genitive *Telaugous*), a Samian, son and disciple of Pythagoras the Great, teacher of Empedocles. He wrote *On the Tetractys, or Quaternion*, in 4 books.
Telegonus first invented the art of divination, e.g., if a weasel or a snake should appear on the roof, what this or that signifies. Supra, in *Oionistikos*.
Telephus, of Pergamon, a grammarian, wrote *How many things a grammarian ought to know*; *On the rhetorical figures in Homer*, in 2 books; *On the construction of the Attic dialect*, in 5 books; *On Homeric rhetoric*; *On the agreement of Homer and Plato*; *Of various erudition (poikilēs philomathias)*, in 2 books; *Lives of the tragic and comic poets*. *Bibliakes*; *On the knowledge of books*, in 3 books, in which he teaches which books are worthy of being gathered. Also *On Homer alone among the ancients in pure Greek speech*, etc.; *Description of Pergamon*; *On the Augustan Pergamon*, in 2 books; *On the courts of the Athenians*; *On the laws and customs of the Athenians*; *On the books of Pergamum*, in 5 books; *On usage*, or on the names of garments and other things which we use; *Alphabetically*; *On the error of Ulysses*; *Ocytocion*, or *A collection of epithets convenient to the same subject, to prepare an easy abundance of diction*, in 10 books.
Telesilla, a poetess. A statue was placed for her, at whose feet are books, but a helmet is placed on her head. For when the Lacedaemonians, having killed those who had retreated into the temple, were going to capture the city of the Argives, Telesilla armed the women and met them in opposition. Seeing this, the Lacedaemonians retreated, considering it disgraceful to fight with women. Thus the oracle was fulfilled, etc.
Telestes, a comic poet. His dramas were *Argo* and *Asclepius*, as Athenaeus testifies, Book XIV of the *Deipnosophists*.
Regarding the Telmissian foxes, writers of Thebes have handed down much, such as Aristodemus, etc. The fable is taken from the epic Cycle.
Telmissus, a city of Lycia, [named] from Telmissus, son of Apollo and one of the daughters of Antenor, whom he made an interpreter of prodigies (*teratoskopon*), as the author Dionysius [relates] in *Ktiseis* or *Origins*.
*Telos* (End). Solon, despising the present fortune of Croesus, ordered him to await the end of his whole life, etc.
Aristo, of Chios, said that *telos*, the end, is to have an indifferent attitude toward those things which are between virtue and vice, and not to be moved in the least toward either side by these things; but in all matters to be of an equal spirit. For the wise man is like a good actor, an appropriate person performing on the stage.
Terpander, of Arna, or indeed from the city of Lesbos, Antissa, or a Cuman. Others say he traced his lineage from Hesiod, others from Homer, and that he was the son of Boeus, who was the son of Phoceus, the great-grandson of Euryphon, [and that he] was the great-great-grandson of Homer. That lyric poet first equipped the lyre with seven strings, and first wrote lyrical *nomoi*, although some attribute this to Philammon.
Tetractys. The Pythagoreans called every number a quaternion. For every number is completed by the number ten; but ten is composed of four [numbers]. They also held the quaternion in high regard on account of the four phases of the moon, etc.
Tetralogy. Plato published his dialogues according to the tragic tetralogy. For the tragic poets competed with four plays, at the Dionysia, Lenaea, Parthenaea, and Chytri, the fourth of which was satyric. The dialogues of Plato are 56 in number, in each a double inscription, one from the name, the other from the subject. In the first tetralogy, *Euthyphron* leads, or *On holiness*, a *peirastikos* dialogue, or one instituted for the sake of exploring. The second is *Apology of Socrates*, which is moral. The third, *Crito*, or *On what ought to be done*, likewise moral. The fourth, *Phaedo*, or *On the soul*, which is itself also moral. Regarding the second tetralogy and those following, it is held in the book of Diogenes Laertius, *On the lives of the philosophers*.
Tetrameter verse was invented by the poet Aristophanes.
Teucer, of Cyzicus, who wrote *On the auriferous land*; *On Byzantium*; *Mithridatic affairs*, in 5 books; *On Tyre*, in 5 books; *On Arabian affairs*, in 5 books; *Jewish History*, in 6 books; *Exercise for the Cyzicene youth*, in 3 books, and others.
Thales, son of Examias and Cleobulina, a Milesian, or, as it seems to Herodotus, a Phoenician, born before Croesus, in the 35th Olympiad, but according to Phlegon he had already flourished in the 7th Olympiad. He wrote in hexameter verse *On meteors*; *On the equinox*, and many other things. He died as an old man, crushed by the crowd and dissolved by heat during the gymni...
gymnical games. He was the first to be called a sage, and the first to declare the soul immortal, and he discovered eclipses and the equinoxes. A His apophthegms are very numerous, such as the famous one: "Know thyself." For the saying "A pledge, and ruin is near" belongs rather to Chilon, who claimed it for himself, as also does the saying "Nothing in excess." Thales, the natural philosopher, predicted an eclipse in the time of Darius (the Mede, or Astyages; see Kuster, note 2, vol. II, p. 163). Aristophanes calls Thales a man who is the peak of astronomy. *Thales* is declined *Thaletes*, but *Thales* [as a nominative] is declined *Thalou*. It is also said *Thaleas*, like *Hermeas*.
Thaletas, a Cretan or Illyrian lyric poet, older than Homer. He wrote poems. Thaletas, a Cnossian rhapsode, wrote certain mythical poems. Thamyris, or Thamyras, a Thracian, from the Hedonian city of Brincorum, son of Philammon and Arsi-noë. He was the eighth epic poet before Homer, or according to others, the fifth. Some say he was an Odrysian. This Thamyris, because he had insulted the Muses, was blinded by them. His *Theology* survives, comprised in nearly three thousand hexameter verses. He was the first to fall in love with a boy, Hymenæus, son of Calliope and Magnetes. Others say that Rhadamanthus was loved by Tallon the Cretan, or Chrysippus, son of Pelops, by Laius. Others say the Italians were the first to discover this out of necessity for military life. But Jupiter was the first to fall in love with Ganymede. Proverb: "Thamyris is insane," used of those who, through industry and set purpose, seem to act foolishly, in *Amusis*.
Theætetus, an Athenian, astrologer, and philosopher, a disciple of Socrates, who taught at Heraclea. He was the first to write about the five solid bodies, B and he lived after the Peloponnesian War. Theætetus, from Heraclea Pontica, a pupil of Plato. Theagenes, an archon of the Athenians, who spent much money on teachers, doctors, and other benefits for his country. Marinus observed him, retaining the dignity befitting a philosopher; he honored him, and publicly waited upon him, escorted him home, and accorded him the fitting honor due to a leading man of the city and perhaps of the entire Roman Republic; for he was one of the Roman fathers and the first of the Palatine senate, etc.
Theagenes and Æschines' wealth: concerning the poor who boast that they are rich. There are two other Theagenes: one who wrote about Homer, and another who was mocked for the softness of his life. He was called *kapnos*, smoke, because though he promised much, he performed nothing. He was also timid, and kept an image of Hecate, which he consulted wherever he went. Hence the proverb, "Theagenes' Hecatæum." Regarding Æschines, see above under *Aeschines*.
Theano, of Metapontum or Thurii, a Pythagorean, daughter of Leophron, wife of Carystus, or Croton, or C Brontinus the Pythagorean. She wrote *On Virtue* to Hippodamus of Thurii; *Women's Admonitions*, and *Pythagorean Apophthegms*.

In this work he offers unique things about the purpose and notation: *A Paraphrase on the Categories* in one book. Also *Dissertations*.
Themistocles, etc., wrote of a generous and exalted spirit breathing everywhere. Themistogenes, a Syracusan, a historian, who wrote the *Expedition of Cyrus*, which exists as part of the works of Xenophon, and certain other things about his country.

It should be known that there were these bucolic poets, this Theocritus, Moschus of Sicily, and Bion of Smyrna, born in a certain town which was called Phlossa.
Theodectes, son of Aristander, a Phaselite, an orator, who devoted himself to writing tragedies, a disciple of Plato, Isocrates, and Aristotle. He was the contemporary of Naucrates and Isocrates of Apollonia. Theopompus, in the III Olympiad, [noted] they had funereal orations for the praise of Mausolus, for Artemisia, his wife.

Theodericus, an African (king of the Goths and Italians), had an orthodox deacon whom he greatly cherished and loved. He, believing that he was doing a kindness to Theodericus, falling away from the consubstantial faith, began to follow the Arian opinion.

Theodorus, an atheist by surname, who, having heard Zeno, Bryson, and Pyrrho the skeptic, and establishing that all things are indifferent, founded the Theodorean sect. He wrote many things pertaining to the sect, and certain other things. The same man, to Hipparchia, the wife of Crates, said (from the Bacchae of Euripides): "She who leaves behind the shuttle at the looms," that is, "who spends her time away from the weaving-looms."
Theodorus, of Gadara, a sophist, born of slave parentage, teacher of Tiberius Caesar. Then, on account of his profession as a sophist, he contended at Rome with Polemon and Antipater.

He wrote an Elegy on the Syracusans, who were saved during the siege; Sentences in elegiac verse, to the number of 2800, to Cyrnus, his beloved; an elegiac gnomology; and moral precepts, all written in verse. However, certain shameful things, and the love of boys, and other things that those who love virtue avoid, are mixed in.
Theognis, a tragic poet, very cold, and for that reason called "Snow," one of the Thirty Tyrants.
Theon, an Alexandrian, a Stoic philosopher, who lived under Augustus after Arius. He wrote "A commentary on the physiological introduction of Apollodorus, and likewise three books of the Art of Rhetoric."

A
He was, however, desirous of learning and loved labor beyond measure. Wherefore, in a short space of time, he acquired vast erudition, having grasped in his mind the knowledge of things both ancient and recent. (From Damascius.)
Theophilus, comic poet. Of his plays there are: *The Physician*, *Epidaurus*, *Pancratiast* (in Athenaeus, *Pancratiastes*), *Boeotia*, *Proetides*, *Neoptolemus*.
Theophilus, Emperor, son of Michael the Amorian, father of Michael, embraced the heresy of Copronymus (namely, iconoclasm), being in no respect better than him. Since therefore the same madness, which had once possessed the Manichaeans and Arians, had seized his mind, he too began to institute a persecution against the Church; a second Nectanebo, having found an assistant, John, a patriarch, or rather a Mantiarch, or Daemonarch, a new Apollonius or Balaam of our time, in truth, a lecanomancer. Even taught letters by him, a man various and wicked, etc.
Theophilus. Having returned from India, he lived at Antioch; and indeed he held no assigned church, but was a kind of common individual (doctor and bishop), whom the emperor revered with every honor and observance. He was a certain image, as it were, of the apostles; whom Thalassius, who spent with him no little time and in matters of this kind was not the least suspected of falsehood, says raised a certain woman of Judaea from the dead.
Theophrastus, son of Melantus the fuller, or of Leo, an Eressian, a student of Aristotle and successor to the Peripatetic school, left by him when he migrated to Chalcis. He was previously called Tyrtamus; but because of his divine eloquence he was named Euphrastus by Aristotle, and afterwards Theophrastus—just as Plato was called B Plato [meaning breadth] because of his ample fluency in speaking, whereas he was previously called Aristocles. He had more than two thousand disciples; his beloved was Nicomachus, the son of Aristotle; he was held in honor by Cassander, son of Antipater. He died exhausted by constant writing, having relaxed his mind for a few days on account of a disciple's wedding. His writings are very numerous, among them *Prior Analytics* III, *Posterior Analytics* VII; *Analysis of Syllogisms*; *Epitome of Analytics*; *Loci reducti* (Loci re-ducti); *On Stones*; *On Plants*; *On Metals*; *On Odors*; *Characters*; and others.
Δὴ γὰρ καὶ Θεόφραστος, ἕως ἐπόνει μὲν, ἄπηρος ἦν δέμας, εἶτ᾽ ἀνεθεὶς κάτθανε πηρομελής. C

Θεώρηκα. Arcesilaus, a philosopher, was slow and drowsy by nature, D but in the art nonetheless well skilled. This man (as Pearson and Kuster observe *ad h. l. tom. II, p. 183, not. 5*) they attribute to the geometrician who, in Laertius, lib. IV, n. 32, had intruded into these things; whence this place is excerpted, and are called "geometricians" by Arcesilaus of Hipponicus. HARLES.
Theoris, a prophetess, put to death for the crime of impiety. Demosthenes against Aristogiton.
Θεωροί, those who were sent to an oracle, and guardians and curators of divine things; for it signifies care.
Θεός. Philo, when he interprets the words *God is Lord*, had a notion of the supreme Trinity. The Greeks maintain God to be an immortal animal, gifted with reason, perfect, intelligent, blessed, into whom no evil falls, bearing care of the world and of those things which are in the world, yet not gifted with human form; the Maker of this universe and as it were the Father of all; and that he, penetrating through all things, is called by various names according to different faculties.
Θεὸς ἡ ἀνάιδεια. Impudence was worshipped at Athens, and it had a temple, as Ister relates in book XIV.

Theseus, a historian, wrote *On Famous Men*, *Lives in 5 books*, *Corinthian books III*, and treats of the institution of the Isthmian games in his work.
Θέσις, according to Aristotle, is a paradoxical opinion of some man, eminent in philosophy, or a problem. As, whether all things flow continuously, and are always being generated, and nothing ever exists, according to Heraclitus; or whether that which is, is one, and immutable, as it seems to Parmenides; or whether motion exists, and does not, as it seemed to Zeno; or whether health is a good, or not, as Chrysippus thinks; and whether it is permitted to contradict, or not, as Antisthenes is approved. One opposes that which is a *theses* and that which is by nature. Some even call rhetorical problems *theses*; Aristotle calls them *hypotheses*.
Thesmothetae, a magistracy at Athens, men six in number, from the nine archons. Aeschines teaches that these corrected the laws yearly, in his speech *Against Ctesiphon*.
Thespis, from Icaria, to the Attic people, a tragic poet, the sixteenth from Epigenes of Sicyon, the first tragic poet; others make him second after him, others the first tragic.
A He asserted that he first smeared his face with ceruse, then he veiled his face with andrachne when teaching his fables; later he introduced the use of linen masks. He produced fables in the LXI Olympiad, and among his tragedies are commemorated the *Games of Pelias* or *Priest*, *Demigods*, *Pentheus*. Thespis, citharode, concerning whom Aristoph. Thucydides, son of Olorus, an Athenian, had a son Timotheus. He derived his maternal lineage from the leader Miltiades, and his paternal from Olorus, king of the Thracians; a disciple of Antiphon, famous around the LXXXVII Olympiad. He wrote the *War of the Peloponnesians and the Athenians*. While still a boy, having heard Herodotus reciting his histories of the Olympiads, he began to weep as if by the instinct of some divinity. Therefore, Herodotus congratulated the father on the character of his son. (See above in ὀργῶσαν), nor did his judgment fail him. This Thucydides was well-versed in the precepts of the arts, and excelled in the elegance of his oratory, in accurate knowledge of facts, in imperial arts and advice, and in panegyrical arguments. It is customary to pass from the feminine gender to the neuter, as: *They move to Macedonia* (ἐφ' ἥνπερ, instead of ἐφ' ἥνπερ [in place of the feminine relative]). Thuriomantes. The Athenians sent ten men to the city to be founded, Thurium, among whom was Lampon, a seer, who taught them the method and manner of founding the city. Thyna, made of thyine wood. Under Zeno, the remains of Barnabas were found in Cyprus, the apostle who was a companion of Paul on his journey. Upon the breast of this Barnabas had been placed the Gospel according to Matthew, having thyine leaves. (Conf. Kuster, note 2, vol. II, p. 210.) Tiberius, son of Octavius, Emperor of the Romans; a man cruel, cunning, etc. (Yet he loved literature. V. Sigism. Justi Ehrhardt’s commentary *On the Merits of Claudius Tiberius Nero in the Study of Literature*, Coburg 1733, 8.) Thyrepanoiktes. See above, Crates, Theban.

Thymelici. Scenic actors. Timachidas, Rhodian, wrote *Feasts*, or *Deipnon anagraphai*, in 11 books of heroic verse. And Numenius of *Opsartytika*, or *On the manner of preparing food*, composed books; and Mastreas (Matpreas apud Athenæum I, p. 5). Pitanæus, and Hegemon, Thasian, nicknamed Phakes, or Lens; and Artemidorus, Pseudo-Aristophanian, who collected culinary words; and Philoxenus, son of Claudius (at Athenæum, the *Leucadian*), from whom also Philoxenian cakes take their name. Timæus, historian, strongly attacked Ephorus, being himself liable to two faults; both because he attacks others bitingly for those things by which he himself B is bound, and because he had a corrupt mind and inserted wicked opinions into his books. If Callisthenes deservedly paid the penalty because he wished to relegate Alexander to the number of the gods, what did Timæus deserve, who makes Timoleon *greater than the most illustrious gods*, etc.? He wrote *On Syria and its cities and kings* in 3 books. Timæus, Locrian, Pythagorean philosopher. Wrote *Mathematics: On Nature; On the life of Pythagoras*. Timæus, son of Andromachus, Tauromenite, disciple of Philiscus the Milesian, frequently blaming others, whence he was called *Epitimaios* [the Fault-finder], also *Skymmologos* [scurrilous-word collector], because he would refer everything to his writings indiscriminately. He wrote *Italica and Sicula* in 8 books; *Graeca and Sicula*; *A collection of rhetorical arguments* in 68 books; *Olympionics*, or *Chronika Pragmata*, *Chronicle acts*. This Timæus, who most bitterly castigated the errors of previous historians, was indeed very studious of the truth in other parts of history, but in the five final books, in which he covered the affairs of Agathocles, he heaps all manner of abuse upon that tyrant, by whom he had been driven into exile, and affirms him to have been a most base man, he who was nevertheless the victor of the Syracusans, whose bravery he extols on every page, etc. C Timagenes, son of a royal banker, Alexandrian, rhetor; or, as some say, Egyptian; who, taken captive to Rome by Gabinius under Pompey the Great, and redeemed by Faustus, son of Sulla, taught eloquence at Rome, both under Pompey himself, and after him under Cæsar Augustus, and later, at the same time as Cæcilius. But when his school had been ended due to his freedom of speech, he spent his life on his Tusculan estate. He died at Dabanus after dinner, when he wished to vomit, suffocated, *sphynotheis*, because the food would not come up. He wrote many books. Timagenes, historian, wrote a *Circumnavigation of the whole sea* in 5 books. Timagenes, or Timogenes, Milesian, historian and rhetor, wrote on *Heraclea Pontica and its famous men* in five books. Also *Epistles*. Timarchus, son of Arizelus, a prodigal and catamite, whom Æschines prosecuted for his affairs, etc. Timasion, an Egyptian youth, whom Apollonius of Tyana, when advising him to philosophize with him: "O gods," he said, "what shall I call myself? For I am not evil, but whether I ought to be considered good I do not know," etc. (ex Philostrato, lib. VI *De vita Apoll.* cap. 2). Timesitheus, tragic poet; his dramas are *Danaids*, *Two-fold*, *The Ransoming of Hector, Hercules, Ixion, Capaneus, Memnon, The Suitors, The Birth of Zeus, The Abduction of Helen, Orestes, Pylades, Castor and Pollux*. Timocles, Athenian, comic poet. Among his fables are: *Demosatyri, Centaur, Kaunioi,*
A *Polypraegmon, Ikaroi, Delos, Lethe, Dionysus, Konisalos,* Porphyra (which others believe to be by Xenarchus), *Heroes, Drakontion, Neaira* (this is a courtesan's name), *Orestes, Marathonians.* There are also others. But Meursius, in *Bibliotheca Attica*, and Suidas, at this locus, vol. III, page 473, believe that Suidas wrongly made this latter one distinct from the former, since he is the same comic poet.
Timocreon, Rhodian, a comic poet himself of the Old Comedy. Enmities intervened between him and Simonides of Ceos and Themistocles the Athenian, against whom he also wove a vituperation in verse (by means of a certain melodic poem). He wrote a comedy against Themistocles and Simonides, and other things.
Timolaus, Larissaean, Macedonian, rhetorician, a disciple of Anaximenes of Lampsacus; being endowed with a poetic genius, he inserted into individual verses of the *Iliad* individual verses of his own, and inscribed this work *Troica*, in this way:
Sing, goddess, the wrath of Achilles, son of Peleus, Which he set for the sake of the girl, angered at Chryses, Baleful, which brought countless pains to the Achaeans, Fighting when they were warring against the Trojans without their king, And sent many brave souls down to Hades, Being mangled by the hand of Hector by the spear. He wrote also certain other things.
Timon, misanthrope, philosopher, who hated every sect, so that he is lashed (by Aristophanes in the *Lysistrata*) as being odious to everyone. Neanthes says that he became lame from having fallen from a wild pear tree; and because he would not admit a physician, he was consumed by putrefaction. After his death, however, the tomb in which he was laid, situated along the road, was separated from the rest of the land by the sea waves and became inaccessible.
Timon, Phliasian, a philosopher himself, who wrote the *Sillo*, that is, vituperations of philosophers, in three books.
Timotheus, Athenian, a comic poet of the Middle Comedy. Among his fables are: *The Woman with the Dog, The Transformer* or *The Transformed*. There is also *The Little Dog.* A comedy of Timotheus, according to Athenaeus in the *Deipnosophists* (Book VI, p. 243).
Timotheus, son of Thersander, or of Neomysus, or of Philopolides, a lyricist, who added the tenth and eleventh string (to the lyre), and brought ancient music into a softer mode. D He lived, however, in the times of Euripides the tragic poet, under whom Philip of Macedon also reigned. He died at the age of 97. He wrote in verse nineteen musical *nomoi*, thirty-six *prooemia*; *Diana*; eight *Diascevae*; *Encomium*; *Persae* or *Nauplius*; *Phinidas*; *Laertes*; eighteen *dithyrambs*; twenty-one hymns, and certain other things. Alexander was, if anyone, ever greedy to hear musicians; for they say that when Timotheus, the flute-player, was once playing the *Orthios Nomos* of Minerva on the flute, he moved Alexander so much that, while listening, he would spring to arms; but when Timotheus said that such was the art of the Athenians, he was then sent for by Alexander with swift messengers. (Conf. Kusteri in not. tom. III, page 474, etc.)
Timotheus, Gazaean, a grammarian during the time of Anastasius, the emperor, for whom he also wrote a tragedy concerning the public tax, which was called *chrysargyron*. He also wrote in verse about four-footed animals and wild beasts which are among the Indians, Arabs, and Egyptians, which Africa feeds; and likewise four books on migratory birds and on serpents.
*Tymallos.* Physicians were accustomed for the sake of ostentation to name domestic herbs, as for example, Cyrenaian laser, Laconian spurge, etc.
*Titlos.* The word *Titulos* differs from *kephale* (head). For Matthew has 68 *tituli* and 355 chapters; Mark has 48 *tituli* and 236 chapters; Luke has 83 *tituli* and 348 chapters; John has 18 *tituli* and 232 chapters. And *titlarion*, *titularium*, tablet.
*Titus.* Roman emperor, son of Vespasian, a man endowed with every kind of virtue, so that he was called by everyone "Love and Delight of the human race." For he was both most eloquent, and very bellicose, and most moderate. And he used the Latin language in administering public business, but composed tragedies in Greek. He refused the crowns from Jerusalem, sent by envoys of neighboring nations, protesting that he had not done those things, but had commended those things to God, as though hostile to the Jews, etc.
*To Dionos grou.* Dion of Alexandria, C a celebrated philosopher, when he was being railed at with insults by some of his brother's adversaries, a wrestler named Topsius, answered nothing, and having returned home, displaying no anger before the young man (Topsius), he even said, "Do not scratch the dirt from under your nails."
*To Hesodeion geras.* Hesiodic old age, concerning those who are advanced in very great old age. An epigram:
Hail, twice young and twice having returned from the grave, Hesiod, holding the measure of wisdom for men. Hail, twice young, hail, twice from the grave. O Hesiod, measure of human ingenuity.
*Tois Hippokratous uiosin exeis*. The comic poets lash the sons of Hippocrates (not the physicians) for their foul behavior. Their names are: Telesippus, Demophon, Pericles.
*Ton Kolophona epithes*. Add Colophon. Twelve cities of Ionia used to come together into a council, which was called Panionium, to deliberate on common affairs. And so, if the votes were equal, the Colophonians would add an odd vote, which outweighed the others, etc.
*Ton eis ten pharetran*. They say the Scythians, when going to war, keep a quiver ready; and if they have spent that day without troubles, they cast a white stone into the quiver; if otherwise, a black one. When, therefore, anyone died, with the quivers being brought forth,
they would count them, and upon finding many white ones, they would proclaim the deceased happy. Hence, a white day comes to be called "lucky."
Topic
. Aristotle’s work is inscribed *Topica*, which means "on places," because the loci handed down in it provide one with the ability to argue provably about any subject whatsoever. Some believe that the first book should not be titled *Topicum*, but *Prior to the Places* (Πρὸ τῶν τόπων), and so on.Tragiodorus, the first inventor of tragedy, was Apollodorus, son of Asclepiades, a grammarian. (See above under "Apollodorus.")
Trajanus, the patrician. He flourished under Justinian, and he wrote a short and most excellent chronicle, the *Very Wonderful Summary* (Σύντομον πάνυ θαυμάσιον). He was a most Christian and most orthodox man.
Suetonius Tranquillus, a Roman grammarian, wrote *On Greek Games* in one book; *On Roman Spectacles and Games* in two books; *On the Roman Year* in one book; *On the Shorthand Symbols Used in Books*, one book; *Against Didymus regarding Cicero*, one book; *On the Proper Names and Forms of Clothing and Footwear*, and those things in which one is clothed; *On Words of Ill Omen*, or *On Curses*, and each one of these. *On Rome and its Institutions and Customs*, in two books; *Genealogy of the Caesars* (Συγγενικὸν Καισάρων), or *Family of the Caesars*, which work contains their lives and successions from Julius down to Domitian in eight books; *Lineage of Illustrious Roman Men*.
A *Three of Stesichorus* (Τρία Στησιχόρου) means the strophe, antistrophe, and epode. For the entire poetry of Stesichorus is epodic. And those who wished to criticize an utterly ignorant man would say that he did not even know the "three of Stesichorus."
Tribonianus, son of Macedonius, from the lawyers of the praetorian prefects, a gentile and impious man, entirely alien to the Christian faith; he was also a flatterer and an impostor who, while he was quaestor under Justinian, tried to persuade him that he would not die but would be translated into heaven. He possessed such a sharp edge of intellect and had attained such a pinnacle of erudition that no man of his age could be considered his superior in this regard. But he was addicted to the merchandising of laws and obscured the splendor of his supreme erudition through insatiable avarice.
Tribonianus, the Sidetes, also from the lawyers of the praetorian prefects, himself a man of multifarious erudition. He wrote in verse a *Commentary on Ptolemy’s Canon*; *On the Concordance of Mundane and Harmonic Diatessara*; *On the Governor and Administrator* (Εἰς τὸν πολιτεύοντα καὶ διέποντα); *On the Domiciles of the Planets* and why this or that is attributed to each domicile; *On the Twenty-Four Rhythmic Feet*; he paraphrased the *Homeric Catalogue of Ships*; wrote a *Dialogue of Macedonius, or On Happiness*; *Life of Theodotus the Philosopher* in three books; an *Orations for the Consulate*; and in prose, *To Justinian the Emperor: An Oration on the Kingdom*, in verse; *On the Permutation of Months*.
Tribunus. He lived in the time of Chosroes, a native of Palestine, a man of erudition and second to none in the medical art; he was also a man of singular moderation and piety in B being godly. He obtained from Justinian that Chosroes should be allowed to remain with him for one year. When that had elapsed, he ordered him to ask for whatever he wished from him. He asked for nothing else than the freedom of a number of Roman captives, to whom Chosroes added three thousand others.
Triphyllius, bishop, disciple of Spyridon the Cypriot, the wonder-worker, whose miracles he committed to writing. For Spyridon did many things, as is handed down in the *Life* of him written in iambic verse, which should be sought out, as it is very useful.
Tritagonist
(Τριταγωνιστής). Demosthenes attacks Aeschines in many places by numbering him as a most vile tragic actor in the third rank. Sophocles was the first to use three actors and a tritagonist. (See above under "Sophocles.")Troilus, a sophist who taught at Constantinople. He wrote *Civil Orations* and seven books of *Epistles*.
Trometis. Demosthenes, among other insults, calls Aeschines a "grammaticus-humpback" (γραμματοκύφωνα) and the son of a certain Trometis, a schoolmaster or teacher of the first elements.
Tropaea (Τρόπαια). The ancient Attics used a circumflex on the penultimate syllable, *tropâion* (τρόπαιον), while the more recent ones acute the antepenultimate, *trópaion* (τρόπαιον). The ancient Attic language, truly, is that whose leaders were Eupolis, Cratinus, Aristophanes, Thucydides; the new, however, is that of which Menander and others were members.
Trophonius. *And Trophonius regarding [his] games.* There was an oracle at Lebadeia (in Macedonia), which was called a *katabasion* because of the descent. There were, indeed, certain gorges there that could barely hold the extreme edges of a man's feet. Those about to consult the god, therefore, having observed chastity for certain days beforehand and being dressed in a sacred habit, bearing in both hands honeyed cakes or little honey-smeared loaves, would sit at those gorges and suddenly be snatched away under the earth. Trophonius, furthermore, was the son of Eresinus, brother of Agamedes, etc.
Trygotragoedia, so called because the winners would receive the *tryga*, that is, raw must; or, because in olden times, when masks had not yet been invented, they would smear their faces with *trygi*, or wine-lees.
Trygodaemones. They were called like "Cacodaimons" (by the comic poets of the old comedy) because they were obscene and impious and devoted themselves entirely to the pursuit of mocking.
Tryphiodorus, an Egyptian, a grammarian and heroic poet. He wrote the *Marethonica*; the *Fall of Ilium*; *On Hippodamia*; a *Lipogrammatic Odyssey* (lacking the letter E); a poem on the labors of Ulysses and those things which the myths hand down about him.
Trypho, son of Ammonius, an Alexandrian, a grammarian and poet, who lived in the times of Augustus and before. He wrote *On the Pleonasm of Dialects which are in the Aeolic Language*, in twelve books; *On the Dialects which are found in Homer and Simonides and Pindar and Aleman and other lyric poets*; *On Hellenism* (Περὶ τῆς Ἑλλήνων διαλέκτου) and the dialect of the Argives, Himerogores, Rhegines, Dorians and Syracusans; *On the Analogy of Inflections*...
On Comparative Nouns*, Book I; *On the Analogy of Monosyllables*; *On the Characteristics of Nouns*, Book I; *On the Analogy of Grave-toned Verbs*, Book I; *On Enclitic, Infinitive, Imperative, and Optative Verbs, and finally all others*; *On Orthography and the questions relating to it*; *On Breathing and Tropes*; and other things enumerated by Kuster, in note 3, vol. III, p. 513.
Tyrannio, son of Epicratides and Cynthia, of Alexandria, or of Amisus, who was nicknamed Corymbus. He lived under Pompey the Great and even before; he had students among others, especially Hestiaeus of Amisus, from whom he was also called Tyrannio, because he used to harass his fellow students, while previously he had been called Theophrastus. Later he even studied under Dionysius the Thracian, and heard the Rhodians; he was a rival of Demetrius of Erythrae. He was taken to Rome as a prisoner by Lucullus, when he had defeated Mithridates, king of the Pontic nations. Having become truly famous and wealthy in Rome, he acquired for himself more than thirty thousand books. He died an old man, B afflicted by gout, in the third year of the 120th Olympiad. FABR. Kuster, in note 1, vol. III, p. 518, notes first that the numbers are manifestly corrupt, because Pompey and Lucullus, under whom Tyrannio lived, flourished long after that Olympiad. Hence he corrects it to 'Olympiad CLXXX', that is, 180. He then observes that this Tyrannio wrote *On the Scolion Meter*, which was dedicated to him by Gaius Caesar, according to the scholiast on Aristophanes, *The Frogs*, v. 1337. Whether this is the same Tyrannio or another, whose mention exists in the scholiast on Nicander, he invites the learned to inquire. Add above in the *Catalogue of Greek Grammarians*, to this word. Harl.
Tyrannio Junior, a Phoenician, son of Artemidorus, a student of the elder Tyrannio, from which he also took his name, having previously been called Diocles. Taken in the war between Antony and Caesar, he was redeemed by a certain Dymantes, Caesar's freedman. Later he was gifted to Terentia, the wife of Cicero, by whom he was manumitted; he taught in Rome and wrote LXVIII books, among which are: *On Homeric Prosody*; *On the Parts of Speech*, in which he says that proper nouns are individual, "that proper nouns are 'atoms' (ἄτομα)," but appellatives are primitive; and participials are derivative; *On the Roman Language*, that it is derived from the Greek. "The Roman dialect of Antigenides; *That the more recent poets disagree with Homer*; *An Exposition of the Division of Tyrannio (the elder)*; *A Homeric Correction*; *Orthography*."
Tyrannio, a Messenian, philosopher. He wrote III books, *On Auguries*. Other useful books of his also exist.
Tyrannus, a sophist, wrote *On the States of Causes and the Division of Speech*, in X books.
Tyrtæus, son of Archimbrotus, a Laconian or Milesian, an elegiac poet and flute-player, who they say incited the Lacedæmonians to battle with his song of their own poems, and so affected them that they were victorious in the war against the Messenians. C He is, moreover, very ancient, equal to the seven who are called wise, or even more ancient. He flourished in the 35th Olympiad. He wrote *The Republic of Lacedæmon*, and *Precepts of Life* in elegiac verses, and also *War Songs* (Μέλη πολεμιστήρια), in V books. The Lacedæmonians swore to capture Messene or meet their death. But when the oracle ordered them to seek a leader from the Athenians, they received Tyrtæus, a poet, a man who was lame, who, when they received him, by exhorting them to virtue, in the twentieth year captured Messene: which the Lacedæmonians leveled to the ground, and took the captives as Helots.
U
Ulpianus, of Emesa, sophist. He wrote *On the Three, Emesa*; *On Heliopolis*; *On the Bosporites and many others*; *Progymnasmata*: *The Art of Rhetoric*.
Ulpianus, a Syrian of Antioch, a sophist, who taught at Emesa in the times of the Emperor Constantine. He wrote various orations, declamations, disputations, speeches, studies, dialogues (λόγους, μελέτας, διαλέξεις), and other certain things. [Kuster in vol. II, p. 738, opines that this Ulpianus is the author of the Commentaries on Demosthenes which still exist.]
Ulpianus, of Gaza.
Ulpianus, brother of Isidore, a philosopher, endowed with an excellent talent for mathematical sciences, whence his name was famous in Athens. And Syrianus, admiring his talent, related to many that he could offer a riddle so intricate and artificially composed D that it could not easily be solved; but that he had published nothing worth recording in the rest of philosophy. He died a youth and a celibate, leaving behind a reputation for goodness among men, etc. (From Damascius.)
Uranius, a Syrian, wandering about Constantinople, practiced the art of medicine, who, although he knew nothing perfectly of the dogmas of Aristotle, was swollen with an empty-headed opinion. He set out for the Persians with Areobindus, the legate, etc. (From Agathias, II, p. 67.)
V
Valentinianus, Roman Emperor. A Christian, although he felt that Christ was of the same nature as the Father; yet he distressed no one for being devoted to a different cult. Valens, however, infected with the Arian contagion, banished many into exile, at which time Liberius presided over the Roman Church, and Athanasius over the Alexandrian, and Eudoxius, master of the Arian impiety, over the Constantinopolitan, etc.
Valens, Roman Emperor, sent bishops and presbyters and monks into exile; with Tatianus at that time ruling the Alexandrian Church, he tortured many Christians, and even consigned some to the fire. But he did all these things after the death of Athanasius. The orthodox sent an embassy from Constantinople to Valens at Nicomedia, men from the sacred order (LX), whose leaders were Theodorus, Curbagus, and Menedemus, whom he ordered all to be burned on the ship itself, which went as far as Dacibyza and was wrecked there. In his time, Lucius the Arian invaded the Church (of Alexandria) like a wolf, as Peter fled to Rome, and he committed such atrocities as were not even perpetrated in the persecutions of the heathens. For he sent out three thousand men, who slaughtered and scattered pious men in the desert.
Varus, of Laodicea, sophist, an equal of Polemon and others.
Vestinus, Julius, sophist, wrote a "Compendium of Pamphilus’ Glossaries in IV books, Selected Voces, collected from Demosthenes, Thucydides, Isaeus, Isocrates, Thrasymachus and other orators."
X
Xanthus, son of Candaules, a Lydian, of Sardis, who lived at the time when Sardis was captured. He wrote four books of Lydian history, in the second of which he relates that Gyges, king of the Lydians, castrated women so that he might always use them while they were at the bloom of age and beauty. He also reports that a certain Alcimus once reigned in that region, a most religious and merciful man, in whose time he flourished in high peace and wealth (Lydia), etc.
Xenarchus, comic poet; among his plays is *Boukalion*, according to Athenaeus, II, *Deipnosophistae*, as well as *Porphyra*, *Scythae*, *Didymoi*, *Pentathloi*, *Priapus*, *Hypnos*, and *Stratiotes*.
Xenocrates, son of Agathon or Agathanor, of Chalcedon, disciple and successor of Plato, after Speusippus, whom Polemon followed, and after him Crantor. When thirty talents were sent to him by Alexander the Macedonian, he returned them, saying that a king, not a philosopher, needed money. He wrote *On Plato’s Republic*. His temperance and chastity are celebrated. He (or rather another, as I suspect) wrote the *Oikoskopikon oionisma*. See above under *Oiōnistikēn*.
Xenophanes, certain elegies, etc. (concerning Pythagoras from Laertius VIII, 36 sqq.).
Xenophon, son of Gryllus, an Athenian, Socratic philosopher, who first wrote *Lives of Philosophers* and *Memorabilia*, or his memorable words and deeds. He had sons by Philesia, Gryllus and Diodorus, who were also called the Dioscuri. He himself was nicknamed the Attic Bee. He was a fellow-student of Plato and flourished in the 98th Olympiad. He wrote more than forty books, among which number are these: "Eight books on the Education of Cyrus; seven books on the Expedition of Cyrus; seven books of Hellenica; Symposium," and many others. He served in the army against the Persians, having set out with Cyrus against his brother Artaxerxes, etc.
Xenophon, of Antioch, historian. He wrote *Babylonika*, which is a work of romantic love. He was formerly a slave and a shepherd; but having been instructed in the disciplines, he brought laws to his fellow citizens, among which was this: that noble women should go out with domestic servants and a single foot-attendant, clad in white garments, while others (harlots) were to go out in multicolored clothes.
Zamolxis, a slave of Pythagoras, as Herodotus [says] in book four, a Scythian, who returned to his homeland and taught that the soul is immortal. Mnaseas, however, reports that among the Getae, Saturn is worshipped and is called Zamolxis. Hellanicus in his *Nomima*, or *Barbarian Institutions*, says there was a certain Greek who demonstrated the initiations to the Getae dwelling in Thrace, and said that neither he himself would die, nor his followers; but that they would possess all good things. Having said these things, he built a B subterranean dwelling, then suddenly vanishing from the sight and eyes of the Thracians, he hid himself in it; the Getae, however, longed for him. In the fourth year he appeared again, and the Thracians believed everything he said. Some say that Zamolxis served Pythagoras, a Samian, son of Mnesarchus, and having been granted his freedom, invented these things. The Terizi and Crobyzi believe in the immortality of souls, and report that the dead go to Zamolxis, who they say will return, and they think this is always true. Wherefore they sacrifice and feast as if the deceased were about to return.
Zeno, son of Teleutagoras, of Elea, philosopher, one of those who reached the times of Pythagoras and Democritus; for he lived in the 78th Olympiad. A disciple of Xenophanes or Parmenides. He wrote *Contentiones* (Disputes), an *Explanation of Empedocles*, and *Against the Philosophers on Nature*. They say he was the inventor of dialectic, just as Empedocles was of rhetoric. But when he wanted to overthrow Nearchus, or (as others report) Diomedon, the tyrant of Elea, he was captured. When questioned by the tyrant himself, he bit off his own tongue and spat it at him. And having been cast into a mortar, he was crushed by pounding. The Eleates (from Elea in Italy) differ from the Elaites (from Elaea of Asia in Aeolia).
Zeno, son of Musaeus, of Sidon, Stoic philosopher, disciple of Diodorus Cronus, master of Zeno of Citium; he wrote an *Apology for Socrates* and *Sidoniaca*.
Zeno, son of Mnaseas or Demius, of Citium, from the city of Citium in Cyprus, philosopher, founder of the Stoic D sect (see above, under *Stoa*). He was a disciple of Crates the Cynic, as well as of Polemon of Athens. He died at the age of XC, gradually removing something from his food until he finally perished from infirmity of strength. When he consulted the oracle about his mode of life, etc. (see above under *sygchrōtizesthai*). He was nicknamed Phoenix, because the inhabitants of that little town were Phoenicians. He flourished under Antigonus Gonatas in the 120th Olympiad. And the proverb "more restrained than Zeno" [refers to him].
more temperate than Zeno. He was the author of a new philosophy. In truth, he surpassed all in the appearance of his countenance, in dignity, and indeed in his blessedness (or long life, as Laertius VII, 28 has it). He died free from diseases and enjoyed excellent health to the last.
Zeno, son of Dioscorides, a Tarsian, or as others report, a Sidonian, a philosopher, a disciple of Chrysippus of Tarsus, the Stoic philosopher and successor.
Zeno, a Citiean, rhetor, whether a philosopher, is uncertain. He wrote *On the states of cases*; *On figures*; a *Commentary on Xenophon, on Lysias, and on Demosthenes*; *On oratorical arguments*.
Zeno, an Alexandrian, a Jew, but because he had publicly renounced the Jewish people, as was the custom received among them, he led a white ass through their synagogue on the Sabbath. This Zeno was by nature indeed fair and good, but slower in eloquence and the disciplines, always desiring and asking to learn, yet knowing almost nothing, etc.
Zeno, another, a contemporary of Proclus, a Pergamenian by race, and he too by nature slower at learning, though good and of composed character. But I cannot say which of them gave Sallustius cause for dissenting from Proclus.
Zenobius, a sophist who taught at Rome under Emperor Hadrian. He wrote a *Compendium of the proverbs of Didymus and Tarrhaeus*, in 3 books (37). Also, in Greek, an *Interpretation of the histories of Sallust, the Roman historian, and of his wars*; a *Genethliacon to Emperor Hadrian*, and others.
Zenodotus, an Alexandrian, called a grammarian *en astei* (in the city). He wrote *Against those things which Aristarchus rejected as spurious in Homer*; *Against Plato on the gods*; *On Homeric usage*; *Solutions to Homeric questions*; *On the Theogony of Hesiod*, and many other things.
Zenodotus, an Ephesian, an epic poet and grammarian, a disciple of Philetas. He lived under Ptolemy I and was the first corrector of Homer. (See Kuster, note 1, tom. II, p. 8.) The same man presided over the Alexandrian libraries and educated the children of Ptolemy.
Zeuxippus. Christodorus, a heroic poet, wrote an *Ecphrasis of the statues of Zeuxippus*. C Zeuxis, whom Aristotle reports was a painter in the time of Isocrates, painted in the temple of Venus a most beautiful Cupid crowned with roses.
It is said that *Zēsai dis*, those who lived and lived again, were Hercules, Tyndareus, and Glaucus; some also add Aesop.
Zoilus from Amphipolis, a city of Macedonia, which was formerly called *Ennea Hodoi* (Nine Ways), or the Nine Roads, nicknamed "Homeromastix" (the whip of Homer) because he mocked Homer, on which account the citizens of Olympia threw him from the Scironian rocks. He was a rhetor and a philosopher. He wrote also certain grammatical works: *Against the poetry of Homer, in 9 books*; *History from the Theogony to the death of Philip, in 3 books*; *At Amphipolis*. Also *Against Isocrates the orator*, and very many other things, in which he was also a mocker of Homer.
Zonæus wrote *Amatory Epistles* and *On the Pine*. Other epistles of his are also circulated, but they depart from his own style.
Zoroastres, a Persomede, excelling other astronomers in wisdom and the first author of the name of the Magi, accepted among them. He lived five hundred years before the Trojan War. There are circulated under his name: *Four books on nature*; *On precious stones*; *The dictions of the stars*; *Five books of Apotelesmata*.
Zoroastres, an astronomer under Ninus, king of the Assyrians, who wished that he might perish by celestial fire, and admonished the Assyrians to keep his ashes, for thus it would come to pass that the kingdom would never perish—which is observed among them even now (38).
Zoromasdres, a Chaldean sage; he wrote on mathematics and physics.
Zosimus, an Alexandrian, a philosopher; he wrote *Chymeutica* to his sister Theosebia, and that work is written in alphabetical order in 28 books. By some it is entitled *Cheirokmēta* (wrought by hand); also a *Life of Plato*.
Zosimus, a Gazaean or Ascalonite, a sophist in the time of the Emperor Anastasius. He wrote a *Rhetorical lexicon* and a *Commentary on Demosthenes and Lysias*.
...than the Zoroastrian [books], which he mentions as having been extant among the Greeks at that time.

Codinus. There are many passages in Suidas which appear in almost the same words in Codinus regarding the Origins of Constantinople. However, the compiler of this Lexicon did not take them from Codinus himself, as he is a more recent writer; but from the same author from whom Codinus also took them. The passages, however, are as follows. v. Adrianiana. Arcadia. Aerabatica. Augustus, the K. Aphro dite. Basilica, that in the. Berine. Earth. Demeter. Arrianus. v. Alexander, the friend. Enyalius.

One should note, Reader, that many places occur in Suidas which are clearly taken from Damascius, as both the style and the subject matter convince; but we have noted here only those which are also read in Photius in the *Excerpts from Damascius*, and therefore it is certain that they are by Damascius.

(*) Indices of this kind, although not approved too much by certain friends of mine, I nevertheless judge that they can scarcely be absent from this sort of writing, which was undertaken partly for the sake of lexicographers; and because it often relies on the authorities of a declining and inclined Greece. If anyone wishes to re-examine these to the scale, he would certainly consume much labor and effort in vain leafing through books, unless he had an index such as the one added here (to which readers of subsequent volumes will also be able to refer themselves). Furthermore, we warn: 1), that the writers of Byzantine history, wherever they are praised (such as Agathias, Anna Comnena, Cedrenus, Georgius Codinus, Nicetas Choniates, Theophylactus Simocatta, Zonaras, etc.), one must always consult the Royal editions of the *Corpus Byzantinum*; 2), that the unpublished writers whom we have used are to be found above in the first index, under the word *Inedita*.
