Of Laconia. Grammarian; one of the so-called 'Solvers'.[1] In these he relates this, too: that there is a kind of comedy called Dicelistae and Mimeloi.[2] [He wrote] On the Mimeloi Recorded in Laconia in Antiquity; etc.[3]
[There is] also another Sosibius,[4] a false guardian of Ptolemy; a shrewd and long-lived individual, and a cause of evil in the kingdom. First he contrived the death of Lysimachus, who was son of Arsinoe; then, after many further outrages, there was a resurgence of the hatred in which most people had previously held him.
