Athenodorus of Byzantium (Greek: Ἀθηνόδωρος), also known asAthenogenes (Ἀθηνογένης; died 148) wasbishop of Byzantium from 144 to 148.[1] During his years of office, when the city was administered by Zeuxippus, there was a significant increase in the Christian population. Athenodorus commissioned the construction of a second cathedral inElaea, which was later renovated byRoman emperorConstantine the Great, who wanted to be buried there. Eventually, he was not buried there, as it was deemed improper for Emperors to be buried outside Byzantium. The cathedral was devoted to the martyrdoms ofEleazar and of theseven children in2 Maccabees.[2]
