The episcopal see of Dometiopolis is mentioned in Gustav Parthey's Notitiæ episcopatuum, I and III, and in Heinrich Gelzer's Nova Tactica, 1618, as a suffragan of Seleucia.
The reference to Dometiopolis's status as a suffragan under Seleucia is found in historical records by two prominent scholars: Gustav Parthey and Heinrich Gelzer.
