Antimoerus (Ancient Greek: Ἀντίμοιρος) was a sophistofancient Greece. He was a native of MendeinThrace, and is mentioned with praise among the disciples of the sophist Protagoras.[1][2] This is the only reference to Antimoerus that has survived to the present day.[3]
Because those studying with sophists were typically obtaining their education in order to enter a political career, Antimoerus was unusual in that he was studying with Protagoras in order to follow in his teacher's footsteps and become a sophist himself.[4][5]
