Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology, Vol 1,
1867, p. 612: "Carcinus....the younger Carcinus was a son either of Theodectes or
Xenocles...The tragedies which are referred to by the ancients under the name of Carcinus,
probably all belong to the younger Carcinus..."

from Thoricus, grandson of C. [3], son of tragic poet Xenocles, c. 420/410 -- before 341/40
