Timotheus Of Miletus
Timotheus of Miletus ( grc, Τιμόθεος ὁ Μιλήσιος; c. 446 – 357 BC) was a Greek musician and dithyrambic poet, an exponent of the "new music." He added one or more strings to the lyre, whereby he incurred the displeasure of the Spartans and Athenians (E. Curtius, ''Hist of Greece'', bk. v. ch. 2). He composed musical works of a mythological and historical character. He spent some years in the court of Archelaus I of Macedon. Fragments of Timotheus' poetry survive, published in Denys Page, ''Poetae Melici Graeci''. A papyrus-fragment of his ''Persians'' (one of the oldest Greek papyri in existence), discovered at Abusir has been edited by U. von Wilamowitz-Mollendorff (1903), with discussion of the nome, meter, the number of strings of the lyre, date of the poet and fragment.
