What is "polyclitus"

Polykleitos (, "much-renowned", traditionally Latinized Polycletus) is a Greek male forename.

It is also transliterated Polycleitus; and due to iotacism in the transition from Ancient to Modern Greek, Polyklitos or Polyclitus. Polykleitos and its variants can refer to:

Polyclitus was an influential freedman in the court of the Roman emperor Nero. He was sent to Britain in 60 or 61 AD to head an enquiry in the aftermath of the rebellion of Boudica. As a result the governor, Gaius Suetonius Paulinus, was relieved of his command and replaced by Publius Petronius Turpilianus.

Polyclitus was put to death by Galba in 68.
