This was published from a Vatican MS. with a Latin translation and some other works of a similar kind by Leo Allatius, Rome, 1641. But the editor suspected that the name Heracleitus was a mistake for Heracleides, and thinks it possible that he may be the Heracleides who wrote on the allegories in Homer.
This work has been also published by Gale in his Op. Mythologica, Cantab. 1671; by Toucher, Lemgo, 1796; and by Westermann, in his Mythograph. Brunsvig. 1843.
