Anti'gonus

（*)Anti/gonos), a Greek army SURGEON, mentioned by Galen, who must therefore have lived in or before the second century after Christ. (Galen, De Compos. Medicam. sec. Locos, 2.1, vol. xii. pp. 557, 580.) Marcellus Empiricus quotes a physician of the same name, who may very possibly be the same person (Marc. Empir. De Medicare. 100.8. pp. 266, 267, 274); and Lucian mentions an impudent quack named Antigonus, who among other things said, that one of his patients had been restored to life after having been buried for twenty days. (Luc. Philopseudes, §§ 21, 25, 26. vol. iii. ed. Tauchn.)

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.
