(Δρομῶν).
1. An Athenian comic poet of the middle comedy, from whose Ψάλτρια two fragments are quoted by Athenaeus (vi. p. 240d., ix. p. 409e.). In the former of these fragments mention is made of the parasite Tithymallus, who is also mentioned by Alexis, Timocles, and Antiphanes, who are all poets of the middle comedy, to which therefore it is inferred that Dromon also belonged. A play of the same title is ascribed to EUBULUS. (Meineke, Frag. Com. Graec. i. p. 418, iii. pp. 541, 542.)
