Antipater of Acanthus
Antipater
of
Acanthus
was a
grammarian
of
ancient Greece
, of
uncertain
date
,
probably
the same as the one mentioned by the
Scholiast
on
Aristophanes
.
Some
scholars
consider
this Antipater to be entirely
fictional
, and a
source
fabricated
by
Ptolemaeus Chennus
, to
assert
the
existence
of a
version
of the
Iliad
that
predates
Homer's, written,
Ptolemaeus
said, by
Dares Phrygius
, a
participant
in the
events
of
the Trojan War
.
