Through a detailed analysis of the structure, motifs and sources —above all the philosophical sources— of the oracle of Apollo on Plotinus, the author of this article concludes that it was composed by a learned man well acquainted not only with Greek poetry and contemporary rhetoric, but also with Plato, Maximus of Tyre and even Plotinus. This leads to the further conclusion that it was composed by Amelius, not necessarily however as a forgery, but rather as a ready-made oracular poem submitted to, and issued with, the approval of the Delphic priesthood.
