Editing Lupercus of Berytus

{{Short description|Greek grammarian of late antiquity}}
'''Lupercus of Berytus''' (Greek {{lang|grc|Λούπερκος Βηρύτιος}}) was a Greek [[Philologist|grammarian]] active during the 3rd century CE, likely flourishing shortly before the brief reign of Emperor [[Claudius Gothicus]] (268–270 CE). He was associated with the scholarly milieu of [[Berytus]] (modern-day [[Beirut]]), a prominent center of Roman and Hellenistic learning.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia |last=Miguélez Cavero |first=Laura |title=Lupercus of Berytos |encyclopedia=The Encyclopedia of Ancient History}}</ref>

Lupercus authored several works, including ''On the Word'' ({{lang|grc|Περὶ Λόγου}}), ''The Foundation of Arsinoe in Egypt'', and other treatises. His writings contributed to the grammatical and rhetorical literature of his time and were occasionally cited by later scholars. Although much of his work has not survived, references to his contributions are found in historical sources.<ref>{{cite web |first=Ucciardello |last=Giuseppe |title=Lupercus |website=Lexicon of Greek Grammarians of Antiquity |publisher=Brill |url=https://referenceworks.brill.com/display/entries/LGGA/Lupercus_it.xml}}</ref>
