Achillea (epic poem)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Achillea is an obscure epic poem written by Hoganos of Appolonios some time in the seventh century BC in Athens.

Most of the poem has been lost, but small parts remain extant, including a description of Thon the Egyptian and a short tale concerning Jason. It is believed there was a copy in the Library of Alexandria, but it was destroyed in the fire that destroyed this building in classical times.
