Anatolius of Laodicea

Anatolius of Laodicea (Greek: Ἀνατόλιος Λαοδικείας; early 3rd century – July 3, 283), also known as Anatolius of Alexandria, was a Syro-Egyptian mathematician and Bishop of Laodicea on the Mediterranean coast of Roman Syria in AD 268. He was not only one of the foremost scholars of his day in the physical sciences, as well as in Aristotelian and Platonic philosophies, but also a renowned computist and teacher of the Neoplatonic philosopher Iamblichus.

Anatolius is recognised as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church. His feast day, like Saint Anatolius of Constantinople, is celebrated on 3 July.
