Praxilla (Πράξιλλα, mid-5th c. BCE) was the Greek lyric poet of Sicyon — author of dithyrambs and drinking songs. **Counted among the Nine Lyric Poetesses by Hellenistic scholars** — the Greek tradition gave women equal place at the very summit of lyric.
Her surviving fragment about the dying Adonis reminisces of cucumbers and apples in summer.
Praxilla reduces to three — the number of Sicyon poet.
