Piersym Cote (IPA: /ˈpiəsəm kəʊt/) was an early Lokrenian scholar of the first century AD, generally regarded as an inconsistent and seldom-reliable source of early Lokrenian folklore and legend. He was, however, among the first to write down many of the oral traditions of the Pallatians who had come from Anatios to settle in Lokren. As such, he offers some insight into the culture and beliefs of the people of Pallas as they were when Epiros was first invaded by the Anatians, though he is often viewed as having a habit of altering elements of what he is recording (as can be seen by comparison with later authors) to suit his own largely ethnocentric and misogynist view of the world.
Cote's magnum opus, the cumbersome Enos Esoterica, is one of only two surviving works by him, though he is also found in fragmentary form in works by a number of other scholars, both contemporary and from later in the Age of Dominion.
