Chorizontes (Ancient Greek:χωρίζοντες; "separators") was the name given to a group of ancientAlexandrian scholars who argued that theIliad andOdyssey were not written by the same person. The best known of them were the grammariansXenon andHellanicus,^[1] but they are nonetheless extremely obscure figures about whom nothing else is known.Aristarchus of Samothrace was one of their opponents.^[2]
