Dema'goras
(
*Dhmago/ras), of Sammos, is mentioned by Dionysius of Halicarnassus (
A. R. 1.72), together with Agathyllus, as a writer who agreed with Cephalon respecting the date of the foundation of Rome.
But whether Dema(goras was a poet like Agathyllus or not is uncertain.
He is often mentioned by the grammarians. (Bekker,

ad Il. 9.558; Eudoc. p. 3.5; Apostol.
