Additionally, an individual named Dionysodorus appears in Lysias' "Against Agoratus" speech, who potentially matches the sophist on several biographical details. This Dionysodorus was a general and "Taxiarch" who supported the democracy; if the general and sophist are one and the same, Dionysodorus may have become a naturalized Athenian citizen along with many other foreign residents before the Battle of Arginusae.
