Saint Diadochos of Photiki (circa 400 – 486) was a fifth-century ascetic whose works are included in the Philokalia. Scholars have acknowledged his great influence on later Byzantine saints such as Maximos the Confessor, John Climacus, and Symeon the New Theologian. Diadochos became bishop of Photiki, a small town in the province of Old Epira, in the northwestern part of present-day Greece.
