Acesas and his son Helicon, who distinguished himself in the same art, are mentioned by Athenaeus. Zenobius speaks of both artists, but says that Acesas (or, as he calls him, Aceseus, ) was a native of Patara, and Helicon of Carystus. He tells us also that they were the first who made a peplos for Athena Polias.
