Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 1310 to 1314
Nephon I or Niphon of Cyzicus (Greek: Νήφων; died after 1314) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 1310 to 1314. From Veria, Greece. Nicephorus Gregoras claimed Nephon to be illiterate, a lover of luxury, and ill-suited for the position.[1]: 253 Due to his willingness to compromise, during his time as patriarch the Arsenite Schism was healed within the Byzantine Church. Nephon abdicated the throne after four years.[1]: 254
