	The '''Periklean Circle''' was a group comprising of several intellectuals who were affiliated with the [[Athens\|Athenian]] statesman [[Perikles]].

The group's members played a pivotal role in the restoration of [[democracy]] to Athens following Perikles' death and the takeover of his political rival [[Kleon]], secretly a [[Sage (Cult of Kosmos)\|Sage]] of the [[Cult of Kosmos]]. Through their machinations, the Periklean Circle was able to undermine Kleon's popularity among the people, leading to a social uprising against his rule, which came to an end once Kleon was slain during the [[Battle of Amphipolis]].
