Unknown Author

An "Unknown Author" refers to a person who wrote a work—such as a book, poem, or article—but their identity has not been recorded or discovered. This can happen for various reasons: the author’s name was never documented, it was lost over time, or the work was created anonymously. Recognizing an author as "unknown" means we know the work exists, but we lack information about who created it. This term is common in historical and literary contexts, especially for ancient or anonymous texts where authorship remains uncertain.
