Likymnios of Chios (Greek: Λικύμνιος, Latin: Licymnius) was an ancient Greek dithyrambic poet from Chios, probably born in the fourth century BCE although this is not certain.
[1] Aristotle mentions him in his "Rhetoric", saying that Likymnios' works were as good[2] in written form as spoken or better.
One of his poems, a prayer for health, was preserved by Sextus Empiricus, although the attribution is uncertain and it might be by another poet.
Partii says that he wrote a poem about the conquest of Sardis and Eustathius of Epiphania mentions him in a poem as Λικύμνιον Βουπραδιέα ἀοιδόν.
