Aglaus (Ancient Greek: Ἀγλαός) was a semi-mythological poor citizen of Psophis in Arcadia.
[1] When King Gyges, king of Lydia asked the Delphic oracle whether any man was happier than he was,[2][3] the oracle pronounced Aglaus to be happier on account of his contentedness.
Pausanias places Aglaus in the time of Croesus.
