Diomedes from Dokimeion
Diomedes ( Greek Διομήδης ) was an ancient sculptor of the late Roman Empire from Dokimeion in central Phrygia .
Diomedes is known today from an inscription from Iconium (today Konya ), in which he and his colleague Limnaios are listed as a sculptor from Dokimeion ( Greek ἀγαλματογλύφοι Δοκιματογλύφοι ). They were probably active in Iconium. Works cannot be assigned to them.
