Python of Aenus (4th-century BCE) was a Greek philosopher and a former student of Plato.[1] Based on Demosthenes's Against Aristocrates, Python of Aenus (the slayer of King Cotys I) was identified as Python of Byzantium, a Greek statesman. However, it is highly unlikely the basis of Demosthenes Against Aristocrates 127; 119, Python of Byzantium has been identified with Python of Aenus, the slayer of the Odrysian king Cotys I, but this is highly unlikely."</ref>
