Hegesias of Sinope was an ancient Greek philosopher of the Cynic school and a student of Diogenes,[1] said to have been once scolded for asking to borrow his teacher's writing tablet.[2]
Although little is known of the life of Hegesias, he is believed to have been active around 325 B.C. and have been known by the nickname "Dog Collar".[3]
