I'm bringing this to AfD because I think it bears the hallmarks of a hoax, but isn't blatant enough for CSD. I declined a speedy for this reason, after Googling unsuccessfully. I reckon it's a university student hoax, and quite well put together. Whatever, it's been unsourced since 2009 anyway and doesn't show any particular notability for the subject.

Credit for spotting this goes to SwisterTwister, by the way.

Delete basically as searches easily found nothing and this has never been improved likely because it's non-existent. Certainly another example of no one caring for noticing this was actually fabricated.

Delete as searches found the same results as above.

Delete as hoax. No references whatsoever found for this subject apart from Wikipedia and mirrors. Any authentic ancient Greek philosopher of any notability would have some references in some
reliable source - otherwise, how would anyone know of his existence?

Delete - pretty much the same as above.

Delete: I see why you were conflicted about a CSD on this one.. It almost looks plausible, but it's still a hoax. Honestly looks like a snow close here is indicated.
