Apollothemis

Apollothemis (Ancient Greek: Ἀπολλόθεμις) can refer to a number of different men of classical antiquity:

  • Apollothemis was a historian of ancient Greece, whom Plutarch made use of in his life of Lycurgus.[1]
  • Apollothemis, father of Diogenes of Apollonia
  • Apollothemis of Smyrna, son of Pytheas, who is named in a subscription list at Smyrna.[2]
  • Apollothemis of Prokonnesos, Athenian exile who was likely the leader of the pro-Athenian faction in Prokonnesos. He may have died in exile after Prokonnesos was absorbed into Cyzicus in 362.[3]
