Timothy II of Alexandria was a 5th-century monk and patriarch who served as the leader of the Miaphysite faction in Egypt. Known also as Timothy Ailuros, he was elected to the see of Alexandria in 454 following the exile of Dioscorus. His leadership was marked by intense theological conflict with the pro-Chalcedonian establishment, leading to his temporary expulsion by Emperor Leo I in 460. He eventually returned to his position in 475 and remained patriarch until his death in 477.
