Meaning of ZENO in English

orig. Tarasicodissa

born , Isauria, Diocese of the East

died April 9, AD 491

Eastern Roman emperor (474491).

A military leader, he married the daughter of Emperor Leo I ( 0441; 466), and their son reigned briefly as Leo II (474). On the boy's early death, Zeno became emperor. Obliged to flee to Isauria to escape a coup d'état, he returned to Constantinople in 476. He made peace with the Vandal s in Africa, put down a rebellion in Asia Minor (484), and persuaded the Ostrogoth s to leave the Eastern Empire by making Theodoric king of Italy (489). Seeking to reconcile orthodox Christians and Monophysite s, he caused a schism with Rome (484519).
