Apollonius of Aphrodisias

Apollonius (Ancient Greek: Απολλώνιος) of Aphrodisias in Cilicia is described in the Suda as a high priest and a historian. He is said to have written a work on the town of Tralles, a second on the mythological figure Orpheus and his mysteries, and a third on the history of Caria (Καρικά), of which the eighteenth book is mentioned, and which is often referred to by Stephanus of Byzantium.^[1][2]
