Zeta 79. The claim is chronologically impossible, prima facie, as
Zeno of Sidon (Epicurean, not Stoic) lived c.150-70 BCE; see web address 1. The solution has been to distinguish between two men of this name, an earlier Stoic and a later Epicurean: see Julia Annas in OCD(3) p.1635, under
Zeno(6) and (7).
