ANAXAGOREIA (ἀναξαγόρεια), a day of recreation for all the youths at Lampsacus, which took place once every year, in compliance, it was said, with a wish expressed by Anaxagoras, who, after being expelled from Athens, spent the remainder of his life here. This continued to be observed even in the time of Diogenes Laërtius (Anaxag. c. 10).
