59 A physician who lived probably at the end of the first century B.C. 

 He was a disciple of Erasistratus, and founded a medical school at Smyrna. 

 He is quoted by Athenaeus, and in B. xxvii. c. 14, Pliny calls him " a phy- 

 sician of no small authority." He seems to have been a voluminous writer ; 

 but none of his works have survived.
