Antileon

Antileon (Ancient Greek: Ἀντιλέων) was an ancient Greek author who wrote a work on chronology (Περὶ Χρόνων), the second book of which is referred to by Diogenes Laërtius.[1] Whether he is the same person as the Antileon mentioned by Julius Pollux is uncertain.[2]

"Antileon" in Greek mythology is also the name of one of the twin sons of Heracles and Procris, and brother to Hippeus (or Hipparinus).
