Theodore I of Constantinople was an Eastern Orthodox priest who served as the Ecumenical Patriarch from 677 to 679. Living during the Byzantine Empire, his brief tenure coincided with a period of intense conflict, specifically the Arab siege of Constantinople between 674 and 678. During these years, the Byzantine military successfully defended the city against the Arab incursion. He was preceded in his office by Constantine I and succeeded by George I.
