Archytas is a lunar impact crater that protrudes into the northern edge of Mare Frigoris. To the northwest is the comparably-sized Timaeus crater, and the smaller Protagoras crater lies in the opposite direction to the southeast. Further to the southwest, beyond the opposite edge of the mare, is the prominent Plato crater.

Archytas (Greek: Αρχύτας; 428 BC-347 BC) was an Ancient Greek philosopher, mathematician, astronomer, statesman, and strategist.
