2. A soothsayer in Alexander's army, who warned the king of the danger to which his life would be exposed in the attack which he was on the point of making on the town of the Malli, B. C. 326. Alexander is said to have rejected the warning contemptuously, and in the assault he had a very narrow escape from death. (Diod. 17.93 ; Curt. 9.4; comp. Arr. Anab. 6.9, &c.; Plut. Alex. 63.)
