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 until the 19th century were the only source of knowledge of the "lost" documents in the West, before the "rediscovery" of the Ethiopic text.
