Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 925 to 928
"Patriarch Stephen II" redirects here. For other uses, see Stephen II of Antioch.
Stephen II of Amasea (Greek: Στέφανος Stefanos; died 19 July 928) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 29 June 925 to 18 July 928.
He appears to have been appointed to the post by Romanos I Lekapenos after the death of Nicholas I as a stop-gap until Romanos's own son, Theophylact, was old enough to assume the post.[1] Steven Runciman calls him a "deliberate nonentity".[2] He is a saint, commemorated on July 18.[3]
