Works
According to the Suda, Oenomaus wrote the following works:
- On Cynicism
- Republic
- On philosophy according to Homer
- On Crates and Diogenes and other subjects.
The Emperor Julian also mentions that Oenomaus wrote tragedies. This list, however, does not included the work which is best known to us, namely, his attack on the oracles, which is sometimes entitled Against the Oracle (Greek: Κατα χρηστηρίων), but the proper title seems to have been Detection of Deceivers (Greek: Γοήτων Φωρά, Latin: Detectio Praestigiatorum).
