Eulamius

Athenian philosopher · Academics

Eulamius, born in Phrygia, was, along with Damascius, one of the Athenian philosophers who sought asylum at the court of Khosrau I of Persia in 531/532 when Byzantine emperor Justinian I closed down the last pagan philosophical schools in Athens.

Eulamius is read about 2 times a day, in 6 languages.

About this person

Eulamius was disappointed in Persia and ultimately returned to Byzantium in 532 together with other Greek philosophers, protected by a treaty that guaranteed their safety. His name appears as Eulalios in the Suda and as Eulamios in the historical works of Agathias.
