Agallianos Kontoskeles (Шаблон:Lang-el; died 18 April 727) was a Byzantine military commander and rebel leader.

Agallianos served as tourmarches of the Theme of Hellas in 726/7, when the theme erupted in revolt against Emperor Leo III the Isaurian.Шаблон:Sfn Along with Stephen, possibly the commander of the Karabisianoi naval district of the Cyclades,Шаблон:Sfn Agallianos became the leader of the revolt,Шаблон:Sfn and a certain Kosmas was acclaimed as emperor by the rebels.Шаблон:Sfn

However, the rebel fleet was defeated on 18 April 727 by the loyalist navy through the use of Greek fire. Agallianos drowned when he fell from the board of his ship into the sea in full armour, while Stephen and Kosmas were captured and beheaded.Шаблон:Sfn On account of his surname "Kontoskeles" ("short-leg"), the Patria of Constantinople erroneously involves him in the construction of the Kontoskalion harbour in Constantinople.Шаблон:Sfn
