Apollodorus of Acharnae
Apollodorus (Greek: Ἀπολλόδωρος, translit. Apollodōros; 394 BC – after 343 BCE) of Acharnae in Attica was an Athenian politician known from several ancient forensic speeches which were preserved as part of the Demosthenic corpus. He was the son of Pasion, a former slave and eventually a wealthy banker who had been granted Athenian citizenship in thanks for the gifts he had made to the city of Athens.
