Theophanes of Mytilene was a major political figure and historian (biography of Pompey) in the town of Mytilene on the island of Lesbos around the middle of the first century BC. He helped with his geographical knowledge Pompey in his campaigns against Mithridates. His contributions to his city were so great that he was accorded the honours of a hero, "Theos", after his death and his portrait appeared in relief on terracotta medallions fixed to the inside bottom of bowls.
