'Antiochus of Syracuse', Greek historian, flourished about 420 BC Nothing is known of his life, but his works, of which only fragments remain, enjoyed a high reputation because of their accuracy. He wrote a ''History of Sicily'' from the earliest times to 424, which was used by Thucydides, and the ''Colonizing of Italy'', frequently referred to by Strabo and Dionysius of Halicarnassus.
