Antilochus () was a historian of ancient Greece who wrote an account of the Greek philosophers from the time of Pythagoras to the death of Epicurus, whose system he himself adopted.Clement of Alexandria, Stromata i. p. 133 He seems to be the same as the "Antilogus" mentioned by Dionysius of Halicarnassus.Dionysius of Halicarnassus, De Comp. Verb. 4comp. Anonym. Descript. Olymp. xlix Theodoret quotes an Antilochus as his authority for placing the tomb of Cecrops I on the acropolis of Athens,Theodoret, Therap. viii. p. 908 but as Clement of AlexandriaClement of Alexandria, Protrepticus p. 13 and ArnobiusArnobius, Adversus Gentes 6.6 refer for the same fact to a writer of the name of "Antiochus", there may possibly be an error in Theodoret.
