Person
Demophilus of Constantinople
died about 386
Homoian bishop of Constantinople
Attested. The expulsion in 380 is in the historians. A death about 386 is the usual report.
Demophilus was the Homoian bishop of the capital. In November 380 Theodosius required a Nicene confession. Demophilus refused and left the city. He was not seated at the council of 381. The council's Nicene majority replaced that Homoian hold on Constantinople rather than outvoting him in the room.
