Agroetas (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: Ἀγροίτας) was an ancient Greek historian who wrote a work on Scythia (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: Σκυθικά), from the thirteenth book of which the scholiast on Apollonius of Rhodes quotes,[1] and one on Libya (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: Λιβυκά), the fourth book of which is quoted by the same scholiast.[2] He is also mentioned by Stephanus of Byzantium.[3] 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.[4]
