Philomelus (gr. Φιλόμηλος, Philomilos), one of the witnesses to the will of Theophrastus, who died 287 BC (Diog. Laertius. v. 57). He is perhaps the same with Philomelus, mentioned by Numenius, the Pythagorean-Platonic philosopher, in connection with Mnaseas and Timon, as belonging to the school of the sceptics. (Euseb. P. E. xiv. p. 731, ed. 1688).
