Fravitta of Constantinople was a 5th-century presbyter who served as the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 488 to 489. His brief tenure was marked by political maneuvering and conflicting communications with the papacy. While some historical accounts suggest he used bribery to secure his position through a manipulated divine selection process, other records indicate he was supported by Emperor Zeno to promote ecclesiastical unity. He died in Constantinople in 490, shortly after his elevation to the patriarchate.
