Antisthenes (Ancient Greek: Ἀντισθένης) was a man of ancient Greece who was a disciple of Heraclitus, on whose work he wrote a commentary.

It is not improbable that this Antisthenes may be the same as the one who wrote a work on the succession of the Greek philosophers (αἱ τῶν φιλοσόφων διαδοχαί), which is so often referred to by Diogenes Laërtius in his own work, unless it appear preferable to assign it to the peripatetic philosopher of this name mentioned by Phlegon of Tralles, Antisthenes of Rhodes.
