The Oxford dictionary of the classical world (edited by John Roberts)
“Spanning almost one thousand years, from the first Olympic Games in 776 BC to the death of Marcus Aurelius in AD 180, this accessible and wide-ranging reference work draws on the groundbreaking Oxford Classical Dictionary to present more than 2,500 entries on the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome. The dictionary covers key aspects of ancient Greek and Roman life and literature, such as science, social structure, philosophy, and religion, and contains comprehensive articles on central figures, both real and mythological, from Achilles to Zeno.”

Persons of ancient Athens (John S. Traill) 1994-
CLASS Reference DF289 .P47 1994
PAA is complemented by Website Attica which describes the Persons of ancient Athens as having “a much wider compass than J. Kirchner's Prosopographia Attica: PA had 15,588 entries, was limited to the pre-Augustan period, and contained only bona fide Athenian citizens, while Persons of Ancient Athens, with more than 100,000 entries, includes Athenian citizens at home and abroad, slaves, resident aliens, and foreigners honored at Athens -- all the known men and women of Athens from the beginning of alphabetic writing to the Byzantine period. “ This website “complements and enhances the published volumes of Persons of Ancient Athens. The addenda et corrigenda to the published volumes, which are issued as a supplement to PAA periodically, are regularly updated at this web site”. Refer to the website for information on possible searches, which are facilitated by access to the printed PAA.
