Philoxenus

5. The author of an epigram in the Greek Anthology, on Tlepolemus, the son of Polycritus, who gained an Olympic victory in Ol. 131, B. C. 256 (Paus. 5.8). This must, therefore, be somewhere about the date of the poet, of whom nothing more is known. (Brunck, Anal. vol. ii. p. 58; Jacobs, Anth. Graec. vol. ii. p. 58, vol. xiii. p. 937.)
