description: "Leucius, called Leucius Charinus by Photios in the ninth century, is named by Evodius, bishop of Uzala, as the author of a cycle of what M. R. James termed \"postolic romances\". These works seem to have had wide currency long before a selection from them was read aloud at the Second Council of Nicaea (787) and then rejected. Leucius is not among the early heretical teachers mentioned by name in Irenaeus' Adversus haereses. Most of the works seem to be products of the mid-third century."
