Amelesagoras ( Ancient Greek: Ἀμελησαγόρας) or Melesagoras (Μελησαγόρας, as he is called by others) of Chalcedon, was an early Greek historian. [1] The histories of Gorgias and Eudemus of Naxos both borrowed from him. [2] [3] [4]
Maximus Tyrius speaks of a Melesagoras, a native of Eleusis, [5] and Antigonus of Carystus of an Amelesagoras of Athens, [6] the latter of whom wrote an account of Attica; these persons are probably the same, and perhaps also the same as Amelesagoras of Chalcedon. [7]
