Aetion

3rd-century BC Greek artist · Artists

Aetion was an ancient Greek sculptor of Amphipolis, mentioned by Callimachus and Theocritus, from whom we learn that at the request of Nicias, a famous physician of Miletus, he executed a statue of Asclepius in cedar wood. He flourished about the middle of the 3rd century BC.

Aetion is read about 2 times a day, in 7 languages.

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
