Herodorus
2. A writer who, according to Olympiodorus (Phot. Bibl. 80), composed a history of Orpheus and Musaeus. If he is the same with the Herodorus frequently mentioned in connection with Apion, he lived about the time of the emperors Tiberius and Claudius. (Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. i. pp. 512, 515.)
