  • Croesus, type of departed grandeur, x. 27
  • Demetrius, the Platonist (for whom, and not to his credit, see Lucian, Calumn. 16), viii. 25. But Arethas refers to this passage in a note on Lucian, De Salt. 63, where the Demetrius spoken of is the Cynic, the friend of Thrasea (cp. also, Lucian, Demon. 3; Adv. Ind. 19). Consequently ὁ Πλατωνικὸς would seem to be an error for Κυνικός; of Phalerum. the distinguished orator, statesman, and philosopher of Athens. circa 300, ix. 29, but Schenkl obelizes ὁ Φαληρεύς
  • Democrates, a Pythagorean philosopher, from whom is taken (so Prof. Schenkl in loc.) the quotation, "The Universe is transformation, and Life is opinion," iv. 3

  • Diognetus, i. 6. Some connect him with the recipient of the Christian Epistle to Diognetus
  • Dion, i. 14, generally taken to be the Syracusan Dion. But Dion of Prusa was a truer philosopher and better man, and he matches better with Thrasea and Helvidius. Moreover, Arethas (?) twice quotes Marcus in notes to Dio (see under "Arethas," Index i.)
  • Diotimus, a freedman or favourite of Hadrian, viii. 25, 37
  • Domitius (Dometius), I. 13. The Domitii were maternal (adoptive) ancestors of Marcus
