Critobu'lus
(
*Krito/boulos), son of Criton, and a disciple of Socrates.
He did not however profit much by his master's instructions, if we may trust the testimony of Aeschines the Socratic (apud
Athen. v. p. 220a; comp. Casaub.
ad loc.), by whom he is represented as destitute of refinement and sordid in his mode of living. (Comp. Plat.
Phaed. p. 57;
Xen. Mem. 1.3.8,
2.6;
Athen. 5.188d;
D. L. 2.121.)
