adding new bees to a colony that had grown old (Pliny, 13.131–132, C, 9.13.8–9).
His work also dealt with trees, the cultivation of radishes, and wine-making (Pliny
1.ind.11–15, 19, 14.120, 19.84). His floruit falls somewhere between A, whom he
appears to surpass in apiary expertise, and I H, who cited him.

Aristo ̄n (I) (450 – 400 BCE)
Physician, pupil of P (or P) A. G (15.455.15 K., cf. 18A.9.1
K.) includes him among the palaioi, to whom the Regimen in Health was attributed. He was an
upholder of the thesis which the author of the H C O S
D objected to, according to which intelligence was located in the diaphragm, so that,
in his opinion, the diaphragm played an important role in mental diseases.

Aristo ̄n (II) (50 – 10 BCE?)
Not the same as A (I), but a later homonym whom C 5.18.33 quotes concern-
ing an ointment for gout. Aristo ̄n (II) may be the same Aristo ̄n whose medication
A Y (in G CMLoc 9.4 [13.281.4 K.]) mentions as being an
excellent soothing remedy for intestinal disorder.

Student of L T and his successor as scholarch of the Peripatos from ca
225; author of Erotic Examples and other works, probably including a dialogue Luko ̄n, and
possibly also ethical works On Old Age and On Relieving Arrogance. Lack of specific identifica-
tion in ancient sources often makes it impossible to distinguish his works and ideas from
those of other writers named Aristo ̄n. He played a role in preserving and transmitting the
