Hegesippus was an Athenian orator and statesman of the 4th century BCE, a contemporary and ally of Demosthenes in opposing the expansion of Philip II of Macedon. He is associated with the surviving speech 'On Halonnesus,' traditionally transmitted among the works of Demosthenes but generally attributed by scholars to Hegesippus. He represents the anti-Macedonian faction in Athenian politics of his era.
