In turn, the name means “the one who loses his horses.” 1) Lysippos was a Greek sculptor of the 4th-century BC. Together with Scopas and Praxiteles, he is considered one of the three most celebrated sculptors of the Classical Greek era, bringing transition into the Hellenistic period. 2) Lysippa, in Greek mythology, was the daughter of Stenebea and her husband Priest king of Argos and later sovereign of Tiryns. Known also as Lisippe, she had two sisters (Iphinoe and Iphianassa) that her name was Pretides.
