Asclepiades of Alexandria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Asclepiades (Ancient Greek: Ἀσκληπιάδης) of Alexandria seems to have been a grammarian, as the Scholiast on Aristophanes quotes him as an authority on the meaning of the word δήμαρχος.[1] Of his time we know only that he lived in or after the 5th century BCE.
