Synesius Scholasticus
Appearance
Synesius Scholasticus was a Greek poet of the 6th century, who is the author of an epigram preserved in the Greek Anthology on a statue of Hippocrates.[1] He appears to have lived shortly before the destruction of Berytus by an earthquake in 551 CE. Another poem[2] in the Greek Anthology credits him with a victory in battle, possibly against Khosrow I in 540.[3]
