Theodotus I of Constantinople ou Theodotos I Kassiteras, latinised as Theodotus I Cassiteras (Greek: Θεόδοτος Κασσιτερᾶς or Κασσιτηρᾶς; fl. 813 - died January 821) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 1 April 815 to January 821. Theodotus was born in Nakoleia, as the son of the patrician Michael Melissenos by the sister of Eudokia, the last wife of Emperor Constantine V. Theodotus had become attached to the court bureaucracy and was a confidant of Emperor Michael I Rangabe. By the time Michael I Rangabe was deposed by Leo V the Armenian in 813, Theodotus I was an elderly spatharokandidatos, whom the near-contemporary Scriptor Incertus describes as "meek" and "uneducated". On 14 March 815, Leo V forced the resignation of Patriarch Nicephorus I of Constantinople, and appointed the pro-iconoclast Theodotus Melissenos in his place. Read more on Wikipedia
