Heracleides of Sinope (Ancient Greek: Ἡρακλείδης ὁ Σινωπεύς) was a writer of ancient Greece.
[1] It is not improbable that two other epigrams[2] are likewise his productions, though his native place is not mentioned there.
He seems to have been a poet of some celebrity, as Diogenes Laërtius[3] mentions him as ἐπιγραμμάτων ποιητὴς λιγυρός.
Diogenes Laërtius mentions fourteen persons of this name.
