George Syncellus / Γεώργιος Σύγκελλος (d. after 811) was a Byzantine chronicler and ecclesiastic. His World History, or Chronographia, contains Greek fragments of 1 Enoch, which first published by Joseph Justus Scaliger in 1606, until the 19th century were the only source of knowledge of the "lost" documents in the West, before the "rediscovery" of the Ethiopic text by James Bruce in 1773.
