Antiochus

Philosopher of Ascalon who ended Academic Skepticism by arguing that the Old Academy, Aristotle, and the Stoics share a common philosophy — founding the eclectic synthesis that dominated later Roman philosophy.

Argued against Philo of Larissa that the Academics had abandoned skepticism in the Old Academy; developed an eclectic Platonic-Stoic ethics that influenced Cicero deeply. His version of Platonism became the dominant interpretation in Roman intellectual life.
