Aristophon (Ancient Greek: Ἀριστόφων) was native of the deme of Collytus, a great orator and politician, whose career is for the most part contemporaneous with that of Demosthenes.
It was this Aristophon whom Aeschines served as a clerk, and in whose service he was trained for his public career.
Lives of the Ten Orators (spuriously attributed to Plutarch) mentions an orator of this name, whom some scholars have taken to indicate this Aristophon, however other scholars believe this incorrect, and that he is referring to Aristophon of Azenia.
[1] This orator is often mentioned by Demothenes, though he gives him the distinguishing epithet "of Colyttus" (ὁ Κολυττεύς) only once, and he is always spoken of as a man of considerable influence and authority.
There are some passages in Demosthenes where it is uncertain whether he is speaking of Aristophon the Azenian or the Colyttian.
