Theodoridas of Syracuse

Source: Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Theodoridas of Syracuse (Greek: Θεοδωρίδας ὁ Συρακούσιος) was a lyric and epigrammatic poet from Syracuse, Magna Graecia, who is supposed to have lived at the same time as Euphorion, about 235 BC;[1] for, on the one hand, Euphorion is mentioned in one of the epigrams of Theodoridas,[2] and, on the other hand, Clement of Alexandria quotes a verse of Euphorion ἐν ταῖς πρὸς Θεωρίδαν ἀντιγραφαῖς, where Schneider suggests the emendation Θεοδωρίδαν.[3]

He had a place in the Garland of

Theodorus (Θεόδωρος) and Theodoritos (Θεοδώριτος).[10][11][12][13]
