Νουμισιανός, (written also Νουμεσιανός, Νουμησιανός, or Νομισιανός, but more frequently in the first of these forms), an eminent physician at Corinth, whose lectures (Galen attended about A. D. 150, having gone to Corinth for that express purpose (Galen, de Anat. Admuin. 1.1, vol. ii. p. 217). He was, according to Galen (l.c.), the most celebrated of all the pupils of Quintus, and one of the tutors to Pelops (id. Comment. in Hippocr. " De Not. Hom." 2.6. vol. xv. p. 136), and distinguished himself especially by his anatomical knowledge. He wrote a commentary on the "Aphorisms" of Hippocrates (id. Comment. in Hippocr. " De Humor." 1.24, vol. xvi. p. 197, Comment. in Hippocr. " Aphor." 4.69, 5.44, vol. xvii. pt. ii. pp. 751, 837), which appears to have been well thought of in Galen's time. He is also mentioned by Galen, de Ord. Libror. suor. vol. xix. p. 57, and de Anat. Admin. 8.2, vol. ii. p. 660, and bk. xiv. (in MS. Arabic translation in the Bodleian library).
