هرَقلاس (باليونانية: Ἡρακλᾶς؛ إنگليزية: Heraklas) طان طبيباً يونانياً في القرن الأول الميلادي اشتهر بوصفه لعـُقـَد وأربطة الجراحين في الكتاب رقم 48 لـ أورباسيوس' المجموعات الطبية (Ἰατρικαὶ Συναγωγαί, Iatrikai Synagogai) تحت عنوان من هرقلاس.[1]

The epankylotos brokhos or the modern Tom fool's knot

Describing them in detail, Heraklas discussed 16 different knots and slings,[1] including the earliest known written account of a string figure.[2] Accompanying illustrations of the knots were added later by Renaissance copyists, but modern analysis of the writings by knot experts has shown many of these early drawings to contain significant errors or misinterpretations.[3]

The current understanding of Heraklas' knots results primarily from analysis and identification by Hjalmar Öhrvall, Lawrence G. Miller, and Cyrus L. Day, although slightly differing interpretations and refinements continue to be made.[1] The table below shows the knots believed to have been described by Heraklas.
