This article and Agathedaemon of Alexandria are clearly about the same individual - I am proposing this article as the merger target not because this article is necessarily the better one, but because the title of the other article clearly contains a typo (it is derived from the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica, which however agrees with this article in spelling the subject's name as Agathodaemon) and each article contains information and sources not in the other - however, I am not sure of how best to combine them.

Sounds good. I'd just redirect the other one here and maybe salvage that ref. davidiad.:τ 18:37, 28 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

The PtolemaicMSS at Vienna were made in Vienna in the 1400s...
They derive directly from Jacobus Angelus's mapless text or from the maps made from his text c. 1406...
His text came from Maximus Planudes in Constantinople c. 1300 who likewise had to make his own maps...
Should we actually be moving this cite to its earliest attestation (Angelus and Planudes's texts) or did they really not mention this guy at all, implying his existence is an Austrian forgery? — LlywelynII 00:05, 13 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
