Paul II of Constantinople

Paul II (died 27 December 653) was the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 1 October 641 to his death.[1] He assumed regency for Byzantine emperor Constans II after a succession crisis in 641. Stephanos of Clypea (now Kelibia, in Tynisia) appears to have served as secretary/scribe of Patriarch Paulus II of Constantinople (641-653 AD) against the Monothelites, in 646 AD.[2] He was succeeded by Peter of Constantinople.[3]
