(Ἀρχέβουλος), of Thebes, a lyric poet, who appears to have lived about the year B. C. 280, as Euphorion is said to have been instructed by him in poetry. (Said. s.v. Εὐφορίων.) A particular kind of verse which was frequently used by other lyric poets, was called after him. (Hephaest. Enchir. p. 27.) Not a fragment of his poetry is now extant.
