About Aristòmache of Erythrae
Aristòmache of Erythrae was a poet and writer.
Aristomache of Erythrae was an ancient Greek poet known only from a report by Polemon of Ilium, quoted by Plutarch in his Table Talk. According to this report, Aristomache won the contest for epic poetry at the Isthmian Games twice, and subsequently dedicated a golden book or tablet in the Sicyonian Treasury at Delphi. It is uncertain whether Aristomache was a real historical figure. If she was, her dates are unknown, though she must have been active before Polemon, writing in the early 2nd century BCE.
