Myron of Priene was the author of an historical account of the First Messenian War , from the taking of Ampheia to the death of Aristodemus . The dates of his work cannot be ascertained accurately, but it belongs in all probability to the Alexandrine period, not earlier than the 3rd century BCE. According to Pausanias geographer Pausanias he was an author on whose accuracy very little reliance could be placed. For example, both Diodorus and Myron placed Aristomenes in the first Messenian war, which is not universally accepted as accurate. SmithDGRBM Persondata Metadata see Wikipedia Persondata .

He was a member of the Eratidae family at Ialysus in Rhodes . He descended from Damagetus , king of Ialysus, and, on the mother s side, from the Messenian hero, Aristomenes . Diagoras was victor in boxing twice in the Ancient Olympic Games Olympic games , four times in the Isthmian Games Isthmian , twice in the Nemean Games Nemean , and once at least in the Pythian Games .
