Ptolichus of Aegina was an
ancient Greek sculptor from
Aegina. He was the son and pupil of
Synnoön and flourished from about
Olympiad 75 to about
Olympiad 82, roughly 480-448 BC. The only works of his which are mentioned are the statues of two
Olympic victors,
Theognetus of
Aegina, and Epicradius of
Mantineia.[1]
Ptolichus of Corcyra was an ancient Greek sculptor from
Corcyra and the pupil of Critios of
Athens.[2]Pausanias does not mention any work of his, but merely gives his name as one of the following artistic genealogy of teachers and pupils: Critias of Athens,
Ptolichus,
Amphion, Pison of Calauria, Damocritus of
Sicyon (as distinguished from Democritus of Sicyon). He also had a pupil named Amphion, son of the sculptor
Acestor. As Critios flourished chiefly about
Olympiad 75, 477 BC, we may place this Ptolichus about
Olympiad 83, or 448 BC. He was therefore a contemporary of
Phidias.[3]
