Lycius (Greek: Λύκιος) was an ancient Greek sculptor active in the middle decades of the 5th century BCE. Ancient sources identify him as son of Myron of Eleutherae.[1][2] He sculpted bronze horses and humans for a cavalry monument dedicated on the Acropolis of Athens. He also did architecture on the Athenian Acropolis (Inscriptiones Graecae I³, 2, no. 511, 446 BCE?).
