Crinagoras of Mytilene, Greek epigrammatist, (b. ca. 70 BC), flourished during the reign of Augustus (Strabo xiii). A number of epigrams appear under his name in the Greek Anthology. From inscriptions discovered at Mytilene, he appears to have been one of the ambassadors sent from that city to Rome in 45 and 26 BC.
