(), is the author of an epigram
in the Greek Anthology on the chair (Θρόνος) from which
he taught, which is followed in the Vatican MS. by the reply of Theophanes. (Jacobs, Paralip. e Cod. Vat. 199, 200, xiii. pp. 737, 738.) Since each poet's name
has the title μακαρίον added to it, it would appear that
they were both dead before the time when the Palatine Anthology was compiled, that is, the
beginninig of the tenth century. From the subject of the above-mentioned epigram it is
inferred, that Constantine was a rhetorician or philosopher. There is extant in MS. an
anacreontic poemi by Constantine, a philosopher of Sicily. (Κωνσταντίνου Φιλοσόφον τον σικελοῦ; Lambec. Bibl. Caesar. L. V. Cod. 333, p. 295; Jacobs, Anthol. Graec. xiii.
p. 874; Fabric. Bibl. Graec. 4.469.)
