ΣΥΒΑΡΙΣ (Αρχαία πόλη) ΠΟΥΛΙΑ
Hemitheon, a Sybarite of the vilest character, and the author of an obscene work.
He is mentioned by Lucian (Adv. Indoctums, c. 23, and, according to the conjecture
of Solanus, Pseudolog. c. 3). It is thought that he is the writer referred to
in a passage of Ovid (Trist. ii. 417), and, if the common reading of the passage
is correct, he appears to have flourished not long before that poet. But Heinsius
(ad loc.) conjectures that for "nuper" we should read " turpem,"
in which case, the age of Hemitheon remains undetermined. If it is to him that
Ovid refers, it may be gathered that his work was a poem, entitled Sybaritis.

Diocles. Of Sybaris, a Pythagorean philosopher (Iamb. Vit. Pyth. 36), who must be distinguished from another Pythagorean, Diodes of Phlius, who is mentioned by Iamblichus (Vit. Pythag. 35) as one of the most zealous followers of Pythagoras. The latter Diocles was still alive in the time of Aristoxenus (Diog. Laert. viii. 46), but further particulars are not known about him.
