Agaclytus the Historian (Ἀγακλύτος ὁ Ἱστορικός) Agaclytus was a historian of the 2nd century CE who wrote in Koine Greek prose during the Roman period. No biographical details are recorded in extant sources. The name Agaclytus is absent from major reference works, including the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Classics, and Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology [1][2][3].

He is credited with a single work, but neither its title nor its subject matter survives. No fragments or testimonia are known.

His complete absence from the standard catalogs and digital libraries of classical texts suggests he is an exceptionally obscure figure. It is possible his works are entirely lost, or that the name itself is a textual corruption of another historian’s name.
