Icon of person Euhemerus

Euhemerus (Oudgrieks: Εὐήμερος) was rond 316 v.Chr. een Griekse mythograaf (een samensteller van mythen) aan het hof van Cassander, de koning van Macedonië. De geboorteplaats van Euhemerus wordt betwist, Messina in Sicilië en Messene in de Peloponnesos komen als waarschijnlijkst in aanmerking; de andere mogelijkheden zijn Chios en Tegea. Euhemerus is voornamelijk bekend vanwege zijn gerationaliseerde denkmethode, het zogenaamde euhemerisme. Lees meer op Wikipedia
