From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nicarete of Megara (Greek: Νικαρέτη; fl. c. 300 BCE) was a philosopher of the Megarian school. She is stated by Athenaeus to have been a hetaera of good family and education, and to have been a disciple of Stilpo.[1] Diogenes Laërtius states that she was Stilpo's mistress, though he had a wife.[2]
