埃庇米尼得斯（Epimenides）古希腊克里特岛人，预言家、诗人，传说他在洞穴中沉睡57年，不过在醒来之后获得预言的能力。

他创造过一个克里特悖论，他说：「所有克里特人都是骗子。」这是很明显的矛盾命题，因为他自己就是克里特岛人。

Epimenides of Knossos (Crete) (/ɛpᵻˈmɛnᵻdiːz/; Greek: Ἐπιμενίδης) was a semi-mythical 7th or 6th century BC Greek seer and philosopher-poet. While tending his father's sheep, he is said to have fallen asleep for fifty-seven years in a Cretan cave sacred to Zeus, after which he reportedly awoke with the gift of prophecy (Diogenes Laërtius i. 109–115). Plutarch writes that Epimenides purified Athens after the pollution brought by the Alcmeonidae, and that the seer's expertise in sacrifices and reform of funeral practices were of great help to Solon in his reform of the Athenian state. The only reward he would accept was a branch of the sacred olive, and a promise of perpetual friendship between Athens and Cnossus (Plutarch, Life of Solon, 12; Aristotle, Ath. Pol. 1).
