Apollas or Apellas (Ancient Greek: Ἀπολλᾶς or Ancient Greek: Ἀπελλᾶς) was the author of a work On the Cities in the Peloponnese (Περὶ τῶν ἐν Πελοποννήσῳ πόλεων) about the Peloponnese peninsula,[1] and On Delphi (Δελφικά).[2] He appears to be the same as Apeilas, the geographer, of Cyrene mentioned in other manuscripts.[3][4][5]
