Person

Eustathius of Antioch

deposed about 327–330

Bishop of Antioch

Disputed. The deposition is certain. The Nicaea presidency is only one ancient version.

Eustathius subscribed at Nicaea as a strong opponent of Arius and is one of the men later said to have presided. He was deposed and exiled a few years later on charges that included immorality and insulting the emperor's mother. His supporters called the charges a pretext. Antioch then entered a long schism. He is not Eustathius of Sebaste.
