		Leucius, called Leucius Charinus by Photius in the 9th century, is the name applied to a cycle of what M.R. James termed "Apostolic romances" http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/actsandrew.html that seem to have had wide currency long before a selection were read aloud at the Second Council of Nicaea (787) and rejected.
		Leucius is not among the early heretical teachers mentioned by name in Irenaeus' Adversus haereses (ca.
		51.427) made of Leucius a disciple of John who joined his master in opposing the Ebionites, a characterization that appears unlikely, since other patristic writers agree that the cycle attributed to him was Docetist, denying the humanity of Christ.
