Diyllus

Late 4th/early 3rd-century BC Greek historian · Writers

Diyllus, probably the son of Phanodemus the Atthidographer, wrote a universal history of the years 357-296 BC. His work seems to have been a continuation of Ephorus' history, and was itself continued by Psaon of Plataea. The work was in 26 books, though only fragments survive.

Diyllus is read about 4 times a day, in 12 languages.
