The Ptolemies, as a dynasty, were founded by Alexander the Great's general. This is the first sentence from Wikipedia. In turn, Diodorus described the history of Alexander the Great's reign (and indeed all of history, including his father, A.V., and others, starting with the Trojan War) in his works. And the most famous cultural work from the entire period described by Diodorus is the Iliad. The author of the Iliad is Homer. Snowman chose Homer.
Okay, but I think that "ends" is also part of the clue, which is not reflected in this solution.
