Xenocles of Adramyttium (in Greek: Ξενοκλής ο Αδραμυττηνός) was an ancient Greek renowned orator, mentioned by Strabo. [1] [2]
Xenocles hailed from Adramyttium, [3] an ancient Greek city in Asia Minor.
Rushing to ancient Rome and speaking before the Roman Senate, Xenocles effectively refuted the various accusations that had been made - that the entire region, the province of Asia, was friendly towards Mithridates. [4]
It is noted that the orator Xenocles was a contemporary of Cicero, with whom he was greatly friends, a relationship that developed during the latter's stay in Asia in 78 BC [5]
