Eudorus of Alexandria (Greek: Εὔδωροσ; 1st century) was an ancient Greek philosopher. He is mentioned by Alexander of Aphrodisias as a commentator on Aristotle's Metaphysics,[1] in which he is said to have altered several passages. Simplicius likewise speaks of a Peripatetic philosopher of this name, and relates that he had written on the Aristotelian Categories. We do not know, however, if this is the same person. Eudorus, whom Alexander of Aphrodisias mentions, was a native of Alexandria, and had, like Aristo of Alexandria, written a work on the Nile.[2]
