Name Eugammon Cyrene Role Poet | Books Telegony | |
Eugammon of Cyrene (Greek: Εὐγάμων ὁ Κυρηναίος) was an early Greek poet to whom the epic Telegony was ascribed. According to Clement of Alexandria, he stole the poem from the legendary early poet Musaeus; meaning, possibly, that a version of a long-existing traditional epic was written down by Eugammon. He is said to have flourished 567/6 BC.
