In ancient Greece, Atthidographers (Ancient Greek: Ἀτθιδογράφος, atthidographos) were local historians of Attica.
They wrote histories of Athens called Atthides (singular: Atthis).
[1] Atthidography is the best-attested genre of local history from the ancient Greek world,[2] with fragments of more than fifty authors preserved.
[5] Other Atthidographers include Androtion, Phanodemos, Demon, and Melanthius.
[7] The genre in which these authors worked is referred to as Atthidography.
