Isidoros
deacon|Pelusium
Otherwise little attested, Isidoros is known chiefly as the recipient of nine short letters within the vast correspondence of Isidore of Pelusium (not to be confused with that author). Identified only by the title 'deacon,' he was probably a member of the clergy active in or around Pelusium and the eastern Nile Delta in the first half of the fifth century AD, the period and region from which Isidore's collection of moral, exegetical, and pastoral letters survives. No independent biographical details, dates, or career are securely known beyond what the letters addressed to him imply.
