Ichthyas (Greek:Ἰχθύας;fl. 4th-century BCE), the son of Metallus, was aGreek philosopher and a disciple and successor ofEuclid of Megara in theMegarian school.[1] He was a colleague ofThrasymachus of Corinth in the school.[2] Ichthyas is described as a man of great eminence, andDiogenes of Sinope is said to have addressed a dialogue to him.[3]
According toHilarius Emonds,[4] correcting a previously misread passage inTertullian'sApologeticus, Ichthyas was a leader in the oligarchic revolt inMegara in 375 BCE.[5]
