5th-century BC Syracusan politician and military leader
Diocles of Syracuse (Greek: Διοκλῆς) was a legislator, orator, and political and military leader in the Greek city-state of Syracuse, Magna Graecia, toward the end of the 5th century BC.[1] Only a few years of his life have an historical account, from 413 to 408 BC.
