Шаблон:Short description Antisthenes of Rhodes (Шаблон:Lang-el) was an ancient Greek historian who lived Шаблон:Circa 200 BCE. He took an active part in the political affairs of his country, and wrote a history of his own time, which, notwithstanding his bias towards his native island of Rhodes, is spoken of in terms of high praise by Polybius.[1] He wrote an account of the Battle of Lade (201 BCE) and was, according to Polybius, a contemporary with the events he described.

It is likely that this Antisthenes is the historian who wrote a Successions of the Greek philosophers, which is often referred to by Diogenes Laërtius.[2] He might also be the Peripatetic philosopher cited by Phlegon of Tralles.[3]

Plutarch mentions an Antisthenes who wrote a work called Meleagris, of which the third book is quoted;[4] and Pliny the Elder speaks of an Antisthenes who wrote on the pyramids.[5]
