(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Dardanus was a Stoic philosopher, who lived c. 160 – c. 85 BC. He was a pupil of Diogenes of Babylon and Antipater of Tarsus. Cicero mentions him as being one of the leaders of the Stoic school at Athens together with Mnesarchus at a time when Antiochus of Ascalon was turning away from scepticism . After the death of Panaetius , the Stoic school at Athens seems to have fragmented, and Dardanus was probably one of several leading Stoics teaching in this era.
