Analyses afresh the naturalistic version of Peripatetic ethics preserved in Cicero's On Ends 5, our major source for the ethical system of the first-century BCE philosopher Antiochus of Ascalon. Shows how he grounds the 'Old Academic' conception of the happy life in natural appropriation (oikeiosis).
