Aristoxenus (physician)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Aristoxenus (Gr. Ἀριστόξενος) was a Greek physician of Asia Minor who was quoted by Caelius Aurelianus.[1][2] He was a pupil of Alexander Philalethes and contemporary of Demosthenes Philalethes,[3][4] and must therefore have lived around the 1st century. He was a follower of the teachings of Herophilos,[3] and studied at the celebrated Herophilean school at the village of Men-Carus, between Laodicea and Carura. He wrote a work Περὶ τῆς Ἡροφίλου Αἱρέσεως (On the Herophilean Sect, Latin: De Herophili Secta), of which the thirteenth book is quoted by Galen,[3] but which is no longer extant.[5]
