Archelaus (Ancient Greek: Ἀρχέλαος) was a geographer of ancient Greece who wrote a work in which he described all the countries which Alexander the Great had traversed. It is possible that Archelaus was a contemporary of Alexander, and perhaps accompanied him on his expeditions, but as his work is completely lost, nothing certain can be said about the matter. It is also uncertain whether this Archelaus is the same as the one whose "Euboeica" are quoted by Harpocration, and whose works on rivers and stones are mentioned by Plutarch and Stobaeus.

  • Arquelau (en llatí Archelaus, en grec antic Ἀρχέλαος), va ser un geògraf de l'antiga Grècia que va escriure una obra on descrivia tots els països que Alexandre el Gran havia travessat, segons diu Diògenes Laerci. Se suposa que era contemporani d'Alexandre i que l'hauria acompanyat en les seves expedicions, però l'obra s'ha perdut i no es pot dir res amb seguretat. Tampoc se sap si és el mateix Arquelau de qui Valeri Harpocratió en cita una obra sobre Eubea. També Plutarc i Estobeu citen un llibre sobre els rius i les pedres d'un Arquelau, potser aquest. (ca)
