Agatharchides of Cnidus, was a Greek historian and geographer (flourished 2nd century BC); Strabo (14.2.15) describes him as a Peripatetic. He is known as the author of a number of works, which only survive in quotation. As Stanley M. Burstein notes, the "evidence for Agatharchides' life is meagre."
