in the texts
Stromata
Author cited calling Chiron the Centaur wise.
And Hermippus of Berytus calls Chiron the Centaur "wise," concerning whom the author of the Titanomachy too says that he was the first to lead the race of mortals into righteousness, by showing oaths and glad sacrifices and the figures of Olympus.
And ten thousand such things, hallowing the number, Hermippus of Berytus sets down in his work On the Hebdomad.
De Anima
Author of a five-volume history of dreams and dream-oracles.
The rest, with their origins and rites and reporters, together with the whole history of dreams thereafter, Hermippus of Berytus will most abundantly exhibit in five volumes.
