- A son of Demetrius the Fair (c. 285–250 BC) by Olympias of Larissa, and brother of Antigonus III Doson. He had a son named Antigonus after his uncle.[1]
- Three Pythagorean philosophers mentioned by Iamblichus:[2]
- A Locrian, one of those to whom Plato is said to have gone for instruction.[3] The name Caetus in Valerius Maximus[4] is perhaps an erroneous reading for Echecrates.
