Hephaistio of Thebes

Hephaistio of Thebes was a late-antique astrologer whose Apotelesmatics preserves and organizes material associated with earlier Hellenistic authorities.

The cited edition places the work around 415 CE. Its Hephaistio, Ptolemy, Dorotheus, commentator, and translator layers remain distinct.

The represented Book II material ranges across nativity topics, lots, planetary condition, length-of-life commentary, and divisions of time.

Very little independent biography is asserted here. The profile concentrates on the surviving work and does not flatten quoted authorities into Hephaistio's own doctrine.
