Pa'mmenes

Παμμένης).

1. An Athenian, the son of Pammenes. He exercised the trade of a goldsmith, and was employed, by Demosthenes to make for him a crown of gold, and a garment interwoven with gold, to wear at the Dionysia. When they were ready, Meidias entered by night into the workshop of Pammenes, and endeavoured to destroy the crown and garments, in which he was partially successful, but was interrupted by the appearance of Pammenes. (Dem. c. Meid. p. 521.)
