Theon

Roman Emperors

Theon, father of Hypatia, is the last scholar-member of the Museum (The Shrine of Muses), of whom we have any record of. This association shared common property and had a priest of the Muses who was appointed by Ceaser in later periods, but had been appointed by the Kings. The Museum was establised by Ptolemy I Soter.
