Kosmas 24 was an epi ton deeseon of Sicily; owner of a seal dateable to the eighth or ninth century: Schlumberger, Sig., p. 216 = p. 493, no. 1 (facsimile). Obv.: invocative monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει with the legend τω - σω - δου - λω. Rev.: +Κος - μα επι τ - ων δεησε - ων Σικε - λιας. The same man perhaps owned another seal, Konstantopoulos, JIAN 6, 323, where the name and title read: Κοσ[μᾷ] ἐπὶ τ[ῶ]ν δεήσεων Σικελ[ία]ς. This may in fact be the same seal as in Schlumberger, although the text as printed differs; cf. Winkelmann, Rangstruktur, p. 122.
