Timarchus

3. A Greek grammarian, of uncertain date. Athenaeus (xi. p. 501) quotes from the fourth book of a work by him, περὶ τοῦ Ἐρατοσθένους Ἑρμοῦ. He also wrote upon Homer (Schol. ad Il. φ. 122), and on Euripides (Schol. ad Eurip. Med. l). If the reading in Harpocration (s. v. Ἀργᾶς), is correct, Timarchus was a native of Rhodes, and was a writer on glosses. But as we find elsewhere mention of a Rhodian named Timachidas, who was a glossographer, some critics propose to alter the reading in Harpocration. The reason is not a very convincing one. (Vossius, de Hist. Gr. p. 143 ; Ruhnken, Opuscula, p. 205.)

William Smith. A Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography and mythology. London. John Murray: printed by Spottiswoode and Co., New-Street Square and Parliament Street. In the article on Soranus, we find: "at this present time (1848)" and this date seems to reflect the dates of works cited. 1873 - probably the printing date.
