Philinus of Cos (Greek: Φιλῖνος ὁ Κῷος; 3rd century BC), son of Hegepolis, was an ancient Greek athlete and five times Olympic winner.
From then he reigned for over a decade in the stadia of Ancient Greece.
In the 129th Olympiad in 264 BC he won in both the stadion and the diaulos; he repeated the feat at the 130th Olympiad in 260 BC where he also won in both the stadion and the diaulos.
According to Mark Golden, his fifth victory may have been the diaulos in 256 BC.
[2] He appears in a poem by Theocritus, and is also mentioned by the geographer Pausanias and Eusebius.
