Archedemus of Tarsus ( Greek: Άρχέδημος ὁ Ταρσεύς) [1] was a Stoic philosopher who flourished around 140 BC. Two of his works: On the Voice ( Greek: Περὶ Φωνῆς) and On Elements ( Greek: Περὶ Στοιχείων), are mentioned by Diogenes Laërtius. [2]
Archedemus is probably the same person as the Archedemus, whom Plutarch calls an Athenian, and who, he states, went into Parthia and founded a school of Stoic philosophers at Babylon. [3]
Archedemus is also mentioned by Cicero, [4] Seneca, [5] Epictetus, [6] and other ancient writers.
