Patriarch Kyros of Constantinople

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kyros or Cyrus (Greek: Κύρος), Patriarch of Constantinople from 706 to 712.

Kyros was placed on the patriarchal throne in 706 by Emperor Justinian II, as a replacement for the deposed Patriarch Kallinikos I. Soon after Justinian's fall in December 711, Kyros was replaced by the new Emperor Philippikos with Patriarch John VI, who shared Philippikos' Monothelite sympathies.
