Brill's New Pauly: "Th. of Smyrna, mathematician and philosopher, 2nd cent.,T. must have been a contemporary of Hadrian: he cited, as latest authors,
Tiberius' court astrologer Thrasyllus [2] and the Peripatetic Adrastus [3], without mentioning Ptolemaeus' [65] 'Almagest'. Ptolemaeus attributed to T. the observations
of Venus and Mercury from the years 127, 129, 130 and 132 (Almagest 9,9
10,1
10,2). Presumably, the 'old T.', cited by T. [8] of Alexandria in his commentary on the Almagest,
is identical with T. [5]...." from Folkerts, Menso (Munich). "Theon." Brill's New Pauly. Antiquity volumes edited by: Hubert Cancik and
