Name Archedemus Tarsus | Role Philosopher | |
Archedemus of Tarsus (Greek: Άρχέδημος ὁ Ταρσεύς) was a Stoic philosopher who flourished c. 140 BC. Two of his works: On the Voice (Greek: Περὶ Φωνῆς) and On Elements (Greek: Περὶ Στοιχείων), are mentioned by Diogenes Laërtius.
He is probably the same person as the Archedemus, whom Plutarch calls an Athenian, and who, he states, went into Parthia and founded a school of Stoic philosophers at Babylon.
Archedemus is also mentioned by Cicero, Seneca, Epictetus, and other ancient writers.
