17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. Praxilla of Sicyon (fl. c. 450 B.C.) Greek lyric poetess, one of the so-called nine “lyric” Muses, flourished about 450 B.C. According to Athenæus (xv. 694), she was famous as a composer of scolia (short lyrical poems sung after dinner), which were considered equal to those of Alcæus and Anacreon. She also wrote dithyrambs and hymns, chiefly on mystic and mythological subjects, genealogies, and the love-stories of the gods and heroes. A dactylic metre was also called by her name.
