Epagathus was an Ancient Roman politician of the early third century. He was a profligate freedman, who along with , a personage of the same class and stamp with himself, exercised unbounded influence over Caracalla, and was retained in the service of his successor. After the disastrous battle of Antioch in 218, he was despatched by Macrinus to place Diadumenianus under the protection of the Parthian king, Artabanus IV. At a subsequent period we find that the death of the celebrated Domitius Ulpianus was ascribed to his machinations, although the causes and circumstances of that event are involved in deep obscurity.

  • Epagat (en llatí Epagathus) fou un llibert que va exercir (juntament amb Teòcrit) gran influencia sobre Caracal·la i el seu successor Macrí. Després de la batalla d'Antioquia Macrí li va encarregar que portés al seu fill Diadumenià a l'Imperi Part per posar-lo sota la protecció d'Artaban V de Pàrtia. Més tard apareix vinculat amb la mort de Domici Ulpià, i es deia que havia tingut lloc per les seves maquinacions, però les circumstàncies són molt confuses. Alexandre Sever, per evitar que es produïssin tumults, el va enviar com a prefecte d'Egipte, però poc després el va enviar a Creta on el va fer matar. (ca)

Alexander Severus, apprehensive lest some tumult should arise at Rome, were he openly to take vengeance on Epagathus, nominated him prefect of Egypt. But soon afterwards Severus recalled Epagathus from there and caused him to be conducted to Crete, and there Epagathus was quietly put to death. (en)
