Recently, a dark energy model characterized by the age of the universe, dubbed “agegraphic dark energy”, was proposed by Cai. In this paper, a connection between the quintessence scalar-field and the agegraphic dark energy is established, and accordingly, the potential of the agegraphic quintessence field is constructed.
