Archontios
correspondent of Isidore of Pelusium|Pelusium (Egypt)
Archontios is otherwise little attested and is known chiefly as a correspondent of Isidore of Pelusium, the ascetic and prolific letter-writer active near Pelusium in the eastern Nile Delta during the first half of the 5th century AD. He appears only as the recipient of several letters in Isidore's vast collection; the letters suggest a person within Isidore's Egyptian ecclesiastical and ascetic circle, but no independent record of his office, dates, or career survives. Beyond the correspondence, nothing specific can be established about him with confidence.
