an Orthodox Christian monk and bishop. He was Ecumenical Patriarch for the Church of Constantinople from 1491 to 1497. He was previously the Metropolitan of Serres. During his reign arose some pieces of gossip about him, not specified by the sources, which led to his deposition in early 1497. After his resignation he remained actively involved with ecclesiastic issues, even plotting against his successor Nephon II, until he was forced to retire in the Vatopedi monastery, where he died at an unknown date.
