Template:Short description Pancrates (Template:Langx; fl. c. 140 AD) of Athens, was a Cynic philosopher.[1] Philostratus relates, that when the celebrated sophist Lollianus was in danger of being stoned by the Athenians in a tumult about bread, Pancrates quieted the mob by exclaiming that Lollianus was not a "bread-dealer" (Template:Langx) but a "word-dealer" (Template:Langx).[2] Alciphron also mentions a Cynic philosopher of this name in his fictitious letters.[3]
