Agias (Gr. Ἀγίας), the son of Agelochus and grandson of , was the Spartan seer of Lysander, who predicted that general's victory at the battle of Aegospotami in 404 BC. Some ancient writers considered Agias' prediction—that Lysander would capture the entire fleet except for ten triremes (which fled to Corcyra)--to have been the cause of the victory more than a mere prediction. Pausanias mentions seeing a bronze statue of Agias at the altar of Augustus in the marketplace in Sparta. There was also a statue in Delphi of both Agias and Lysander, reputedly erected by Lysander, which has been partially recovered.

En agraïment per aquest servei els espartans van aixecar a l'àgora de la ciutat una estàtua de bronze en honor seu, que encara existia el segle II dC. al costat de l'altar d'August. També va tenir una altra estàtua a Delfos, vora la de Lisandre. (ca)
