Is this General the same one Josephus calls Scopas?

[edit]

In Antiquities of TH=he Jews Book 12 http://www.ccel.org/j/josephus/works/ant-12.htm Chapter 3 Section 3?--JaredMithrandir (talk) 17:59, 8 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That seems to be Scopas of Aetolia. The Josephus reference already appears in the text of that article.
Scopas and Tlepolemus lived around the same time, but I don't know any reason to suppose they are the same person. Andrew Dalby 08:43, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
