Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox person Agresphon (Шаблон:Lang-grc), or possibly Agreophon, was an ancient Greek grammarian mentioned in the Suda.[1] He wrote a work on persons with homonymous names, sometimes called in English On Namesakes (Шаблон:Lang).

Agresphon cannot have lived earlier than the reign of Hadrian, as in his work he spoke of an Apollonius who lived in the time of that emperor.[2] Scholars generally date him to the late 3rd or early 4th century.[3]

Agresphon's book on homonymous people was thought to have been similar to, or perhaps dependent upon, a work by Demetrius of Magnesia, which bears the same title, and was written around the 1st century BC.[3] There is some debate as to whether his name was properly "Agresphon" or "Agreophon".[3]

Another, unrelated Agreophon who was father of Zenon around the 3rd century BC is mentioned frequently in the papyri of the Zenon Archive.
