Agroetas

Agroetas was an ancient Greek historian who wrote a work on Scythia , from the thirteenth book of which the scholiast on Apollonius of Rhodes quotes, and one on Libya , the fourth book of which is quoted by the same scholiast. He is also mentioned by Stephanus of Byzantium. He is one of the authors (= FGrHist 762) whose fragments were collected in Felix Jacoby's Die Fragmente der griechischen Historiker.

Agroetas is also the name of a Roman rhetorician mentioned by the elder Seneca, but about whom nothing more is known.
