Abrotonum (Greek: Ἀβρότονον; 6th-century BC) was a Thracian hetaera, who, according to some accounts, was the mother of Themistocles.[1] There is an epigram preserved recording this fact.[2] Plutarch also refers to her in his Erotikos (Ἐρωτικός);[3] and Lucian speaks of a hetaera of the same name.[4]
