Шаблон:Otherpeople5 Chares of Mytilene (Шаблон:Lang-grc) was a Greek belonging to the court of Alexander the Great. He was appointed court-marshal or introducer of strangers to the king, an office borrowed from the Persian court. He wrote a history of Alexander in ten books, dealing mainly with the private life of the king. The fragments are chiefly preserved in Athenaeus.[1] These fragments are largely concerned with court ceremonies and personal gossip, including a description of Alexander's introduction of the Persian custom of proskynesis to his court.[2]

See Scriptores Rerum Alexandri (pp. 114–120) in the Didot edition of Arrian.[1]
