# Myrtis of Anthedon

> Myrtis was an ancient Greek poet from Anthedon, a town in Boeotia. She was said to have taught the poets Pindar and Corinna. The only surviving record of her poetry is a paraphrase by the 1st-century AD historian Plutarch, discussing a local Boeotian legend. In antiquity she was included by the 1st-century BC epigrammatist Antipater of Thessalonica in his canon of nine female poets, and a bronze statue of her was reportedly made by Boïscus, a sculptor about whom nothing more is known. In the modern world, Myrtis has been represented in artworks by Judy Chicago and Anselm Kiefer, and a poem by Michael Longley.
