Pherecydes of Athens
Template:Short description Pherecydes of Athens (Template:Langx) (fl. c. 465 BC)[1] was a Greek mythographer who wrote an ancient work in ten books, now lost, variously titled "Historiai" (Ἱστορίαι) or "Genealogiai" (Γενελογίαι).[2] He is one of the authors (= FGrHist 3) whose fragments were collected in Felix Jacoby's Die Fragmente der griechischen Historiker.
He is generally thought to be different from the sixth-century Pre-Socratic philosopher Pherecydes of Syros, who was sometimes mentioned as one of the Seven Sages of Greece and was reputed to have been the teacher of Pythagoras.[3] Although the Suda considers them separately, he is possibly the same person as Pherecydes of Leros.[4]
