Eustathios Daphnomeles
Eustathios Daphnomeles ( el, , early 11th century) was a Byzantine and patrician who distinguished himself in the Byzantine conquest of Bulgaria. He ranks as one of the most prominent and successful generals in the thirty-year war between Emperor Basil II () and Samuel of Bulgaria (), helping to end the long conflict by blinding and capturing the last Bulgarian leader, Ibatzes, in 1018. Biography The main source describing Daphnomeles's life, and indeed the Bulgarian campaigns (986–1018) of Emperor Basil II, is the late 11th-century ''Synopsis Historion'' of John Skylitzes, whose chronology is often problematic to reconstruct. Daphnomeles came from the landed aristocracy of Asia Minor, which for centuries provided the Byzantine military elite. Traditional historiography places his first appearance in circa 1005, when the Adriatic port city of Dyrrhachium is said to have been surrendered by John Chryselios, a local magnate, to the Byzantines. Daphnomeles, at the ...

Eustathios Makrembolites
Eustathios Makrembolites ( el, ; ''fl. c.'' 1150–1200), Latinized as Eustathius Macrembolites, was a Byzantine revivalist of the Greek romance, flourished in the second half of the 12th century CE. He is sometimes conflated/equated with his contemporary, the Eparch of the City Eumathios Makrembolites ( el, ). His title ''Protonobilissimus'' shows him to have been a person of distinction and, if he is also correctly described in the manuscripts as chief keeper of the ecclesiastical archives, he must have been a Christian. He was the author of a Byzantine novel, ''The Story of Hysmine and Hysminias'', in eleven books. Although he borrowed from Homer and other Attic poets, the chief source of his phraseology was the rhetorician Choricius of Gaza. The style is remarkable for the absence of hiatus and a laboured use of antithesis. The digressions on works of art, apparently the result of personal observation, are considered by some scholars the best part of the work. The novel e ...

Eustathios Kymineianos ( el, Εὐστάθιος Κυμινειανός, ) was a senior Byzantine eunuch official and admiral under Emperor Alexios I Komnenos (r. 1081–1118). Biography Eustathios' life is known only through the ''Alexiad'' of Alexios I's daughter, Anna Komnene.Skoulatos (1980), p. 85 He first appears in 1087, when Alexios was hosting the Seljuq emir of Nicaea, Abu'l-Qasim in Constantinople. Despite the peace treaty between the two, Alexios decided to use the emir's absence to erect a new fortress to counter the Turks' recent conquest of Nicomedia. Eustathios was sent with a small fleet laden with materials and builders to construct it. To prevent the Turks from reacting, he treated them with every courtesy and claimed that Abu'l-Qasim himself was allowing this work to proceed, all the while impeding any ships to sail from the coasts of Bithynia and notify the emir. Through this ruse, Eustathios was successful in his task.Skoulatos (1980), p. 86 He next appears ...

Patriarch Eustathius Of Constantinople
Eustathius (Greek: Ευστάθιος; ? – December 1025) was Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from July 1019 to December 1025. Eustathius was the protopresbyter of the imperial palace when he was raised to the Patriarchal throne by the Emperor Basil II, after the death of Sergius II. Eustathius participated in the efforts of the Byzantines in 1024 to come to an accommodation with the Latin Papacy concerning the widening gap between the Western and Eastern churches, which culminated in the Schism of 1054. At the time of Eustathius, the Papacy claimed dominion over the Christian world, not just primacy, a position which offended Constantinople, the effective spiritual guides of much of the East to include the Russians, Bulgarians and Serbs. Eustathius offered a compromise to Pope John XIX, suggesting that the Orthodox Patriarch would be ecumenic in its own sphere (''in suo orbe'') in the East as the Papacy was in the world (''in universo''). It is assumed this was Eusta ...
