Eumachus

(Εὔμαχος).

1. A Corinthian, son of Chrysis, was one of the generals sent by the Corinthians in the winter of B. C. 431 in command of an armament to restore Evarchus, tyrant of Astacus, who had been recently expelled by the Athenians. (Thuc. 2.33.)

2. A native of Neapolis, who, according to Athenaeus (xiii. p. 577), wrote a work entitled Ἰσγοπίαι τῶν περὶ Ἀννιβαν. It is perhaps the same Eumachus of whose work entitled Περιήγησις a fragment is still extant in Phlegon. (Mirab. 100.18.) [C.P.M]
