Nikephoros Diogenes
Byzantine emperor from 1070 to 1071
Nikephoros Diogenes, Latinized as Nicephorus Diogenes, was presumably a junior Byzantine emperor around 1069-1071. He was born c. 1069 to Emperor Romanos IV Diogenes and Empress Eudokia Makrembolitissa. He was elevated to junior emperor in 1070, although he lost this position when his father was overthrown in 1071.
Nikephoros Diogenes is read about 24 times a day, in 16 languages.

Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, after overthrowing Nikephoros III, made Nikephoros Diogenes doux of Crete. Nikephoros conspired against him in 1094, involving numerous confidants and relatives of Alexios, including Alexios' brother, Adrianos. For this conspiracy, he was blinded, in accordance with Byzantine traditions. After this, he retired to his estates, and spent the last years of his life studying classical literature.
