    The Φιλόγελως is a Greek anthology of humour. One of its sections testifies that Sidonian people had a reputation for foolishness which is otherwise unattested. The jokes of this section are here presented and examined, also in order to try to shed some light on the possible origin of this ancient ethnic humour, as well as to evaluate the presence of genuinely Sidonian features. Le Φιλόγελως est une anthologie humoristique grecque. Une de ses sections témoigne du fait que les Sidoniens avaient une réputation de sottise inconnue par ailleurs. Les plaisanteries de cette section sont ici présentées et examinées dans le but de rechercher l'origine de cette ancienne «humour ethnique», ainsi que pour y repérer la présence d'éléments véritablement locaux.
