Ariston Of Sparta
Ariston ( grc-gre, Ἀρίστων) was a king of Sparta, 14th of the Eurypontids, son of Agasicles, contemporary of Anaxandrides II.

He was a highly regarded king, as evidenced by a public prayer for him to have a son, when the house of Procles had other representatives. After two barren marriages, a son, Demaratus, was born to Ariston's third wife, whom he obtained, it was said, by a fraud from her husband, his friend, Agetus.Herodotus i. 65, vi. 61-66; Pausanias iii. 7.§7; Plutarch Plutarch (; grc-gre, Πλούταρχος, ''Ploútarchos''; ; – after AD 119) was a Greek Middle Platonist philosopher, historian, biographer, essayist, and priest at the Temple of Apollo in Delphi.

He supposedly could trace his ancestry to the God of the sea Poseidon through Codrus and Melanthus.Diogenes Laertius Plato 1 Diogenes Laërtius on the authority of Speusippus and others, relates a story that "Ariston made violent love to Perictione, then in her bloom, and failed to win her; and that, when he ceased to offer violence, Apollo appeared to him in a dream, whereupon he left her unmolested until her child was born". Ariston died when Plato was still a boy, and his mother Perictione remarried Pyrilampes, a friend of the Athenian politician Pericles.Plato, ''The Republic'', Trans.

Ariston Of Paionia
Ariston ( grc-gre, Ἀρίστων) was a member of the Paionian royal house, possibly brother of King Patraus and father of the later king, Audoleon.

Ariston (bishop)
Ariston of Smyrna ( el, Άριστον, Latin: ''Aristo Smyrnaeus''), also known as Ariston the Elder ( hy, Արիստոն էրիցու.), was an Early Christian, Bishop of Smyrna (modern İzmir, Turkey), who allegedly was an eyewitness and disciple of Jesus of Nazareth and a companion of John the Elder. Personal Information Ariston, or Aristion, is known from early traditions (preserved by Papias of Hierapolis) as an elder from whom Papias learned apostolic traditions. Aristion is identified in Ado of Vienne (874 CE) as "one of the seventy-two disciples of Christ." Very little details are know about his life, Papias, then, inquired of travelers passing through Hierapolis what the surviving disciples of Jesus and the elders—those who had personally known the Twelve Apostles—were saying. One of these disciples was Aristion, and another was John the Elder, usually identified (despite Eusebius' protest) with John the Evangelist, residing in nearby Ephesus, of whom Papias ...

Aristo Of Pella
Ariston of Pella ( grc-gre, Ἀρίστων; la, Aristo Pellaeus; c. 100 – c. 160), was an apologist and chronicler, who is known only from a mention by Eusebius that "as Aristo relates" in connection with accounts of emperor Hadrian and Simon bar Kokhba. Aristo is Eusebius's source for Hadrian's permanent banishment of Jews from Jerusalem (4.6.3), renamed to Aelia Capitolina. Eusebius supplies no biographical data, although some later readers have assumed that like many of Eusebius' sources he was possibly a Greek-speaking Christian. A secondary mention by the Armenian chronicler Moses of Chorene is probably based on Eusebius, but expanded with the comments that he was secretary of "Ardasches", which were read, or misread, to suggest that Aristo was secretary of Mark, first Gentile bishop of Jerusalem. A mention in the Chronicon Paschale reproduces Eusebius. His name was later connected by Maximus the Confessor (7th century) to the Dialogue of Jason and Papiscus (c.140), al ...
