Finally it clicked: Oriana Fallaci. I found all the hints, many of them quite morbid: The Tlatelolco massacre, the cemetery, the death of Alexandros Panagoulis.

I must admit that even if she’s very famous, I found this one rather tricky. I’ll be back tomorrow with a new one.

Clap Well done at last!
 
I tried to avoid giveaway hints. My original idea for a hint at Panagoulis would be just "A man", but that would have been a straight giveaway: Oriana Fallaci would have popped up as the first search hit.

I really like those oranges. They grow them in places like Malona and Massari.

The last hints seems to point in the direction of Rhodes. A Greek myth?

No.

His name was probably changed because it sounded too much like faeces.

Was this person mentioned for the first time in antiquity (before 476 AD)?

No.

If you had dated the end of antiquity to the death of Boëthius, however, both his predecessors would have come close.

Was his father a deity or a demi-god?

No. Non-human, but not a god.
