Theaetetus
4. Scholasticus, an epigrammatist of the time of Justinian, as is clearly proved by the references in his epigrams to Domninus, who was prefect of the city under Justin I. (Ep. 5), and to Julianus Antecessor (Ep. 6). Reiske confounded him with the former epigrammatist of the same name (No. 2). The Medicean library contains a MS. tract περὶ ἀττικῶν ὀνομάτων under the name of Theaetetus Scholasticus (Bandini, Catal. vol. ii. p. 368); and Suidas (s. v. Οὐδὲν πρὸς τὸν Διόνυσον) mentions a work on Proverbs (περὶ παροιμιῶν) by a certain Theaetetus. (Brunck, Anal. vol. ii. p. 514; Jacobs, Anth. Graec. vol. iii. p.214, vol. xiii. p. 957; Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. iv. p. 496.)
