Apollodorus of Cyrene

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Apollodorus of Cyrene (Greek: Ἀπολλόδωρος ὁ Κυρηναῖος) was a grammarian of ancient Greece, who was often cited by other Greek grammarians, as by the Scholiast on Euripides,[1] in the Etymologicum Magnum,[2] and in the Suda.[3] From Athenaeus[4] it would seem that he wrote a work on drinking vessels (ποτήρια), and if we may believe the authority of the 16th-century Italian mythographer Natalis Comes,[5] he also wrote a work on the gods, but this may possibly be a confusion of this Apollodorus with the celebrated grammarian and mythographer Apollodorus of Athens.[6]
