Nico'stratus

4. A rhetorician, a native of Macedonia. He lived in the time of M. Antoninus. According to Suidas (s. v.) he was the author of the following works: Δεκαμυθία, Εἰκόνες, Πολυμυθ́ια, Δαλαττουργοί, and several other works, encomia on the emperor, and various others. Some of his μύθοι were in a dramatic form. Philostratus (de Vit. Sophist. 2.31 ) praises the elegance of his style. (Fabric. Bibl. Graec. vol. vi. p. 135.)
