Damage'tus

*Dama/ghtos), the author of thirteen epigrams in the Greek Anthology, from the contents of some of which his time is fixed at the end of the third century B. C. He was included in the Garland of Meleager. It is not known whether he is the same person as the Demagetus who is cited by Stephanus Byzantinus (s. v. Ἀκτή). The name is also given by the Scholiast to Apollonius Rhodius (1.224) in the form Demagetus. (Brunck, Anal. 2.38, 3.311; Jacobs, Anthol. Graec. 2.39, 13.879, 880; Fabric. Bibl. Graec. iv. p. 470.)
