Archippos (Archon)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Archippos ( Greek  Ἄρχιππος , leader of the cavalry ), the son of Akastos , was, according to the - even for this time mythical embossed - tradition in Chronikon the late antique church father Eusebius of Caesarea after the death of his father Archon of Athens .

Tatian states that there was a wave of emigration to Ionia during his time and refers to Philochorus , the historian and mythographer of the early 3rd century BC. Chr. Eusebius, however, connects this emigration with the term of office of Akastus, although he quotes Tatian elsewhere.

After Archippus, his son Thersippus was elected Archon.
