A Syracusan, a later tragedian, he wrote 10 tragedies.

Note:
cf. alpha 4683, on the well-attested Eretrian tragedian (C5 BCE) of this name. Clearly the two must be kept distinct. Achaios of Syracuse may be the "Achaios" who won a victory at Athens' Lenaia festival in c.356 BCE: so OCD(4) p.5, under 'Achaeus(2)'.
