Greek display:    
Headword: *pa/mfilos
Adler number: pi,144
Translated headword: Pamphilos, Pamphilus
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A popular leader at Athens. And he was stealing the property of the people and, after being caught in the act, was ruined, as Aristophanes maintains.
Greek Original:
*pa/mfilos, dhmagwgo\s *)aqh/nhsi. kai\ e)/klepte ta\ tou= dh/mou kai\ fwraqei\s e)p' au)tofw/rw| katelu/qh, w(/s fhsin *)aristofa/nhs.
Notes:
Aristophanes, Plutus [Wealth] 174, simply mentions this Pamphilos; the actual information about him comes from the scholia on the line. This episode, probably in 389/8, put an end to a promising military career: see the bibliography below.
cf. phi 663.
