Domitianos 1 was a Stoudite monk. He was the addressee of a letter from Theodoros 15 (Theodore the Stoudite), written in late 816 or early 817; he was at the time a victim of the iconoclast persecution, but was in contact with Theodoros 15 and had sent gifts to him in exile, including a flask of oil: Theod. Stud., Ep. 180 (addressed Δομετιανῷ τέκνῳ). He was one of the Stoudite monks whom Theodoros 15 proposed to identify only by means of a code letter during the Moechian schism (in 809/811): Theod. Stud., Ep. 41. During the persecution under Leo V (Leo 15) he is mentioned in two further letters of Theodoros 15, who sent greetings to him via Naukratios 1, Theod. Stud., Ep. 109 (c. 815/E 816; τὸν ἀδελφὸν Δομετιανόν); and via Tithoios 1, Theod. Stud., Ep. 178 (M/L 816; τὸν καλόν μου Δομετιανόν). He is one of the disciples of Theodoros 15 mentioned as surviving the persecution under Leo 15 with distinction: Vita B Theod. Stud., 301C (ὁ γενναιότατος Δομετιανὸς), Vita C Theod. Stud. 57, p. 291, Vita A Theod. Stud., 205C. He is alluded to as already dead in two of the sermons of Theodoros 15: Theod. Stud., Catech. Parva 2 (p. 7 Auvray), 38 (p. 141 Auvray).
