Anacreon was born in Teos about 582 BC and gained fame as a lyric poet. He left the city when it was threatened by the Persians circa 545 and subsequently helped to found Abdera in Thrace. He was later the court poet for the tyrant Polykrates of Samos. Upon his death, a statue was erected in the Acropolis in Athens (from CNG footnote).
