Anato'lius
(
*)Anato/lios), Patriarch of CONSTANTINOPLE (A. D. 449), presided at a synod at Constantinople (A. D. 450) which condemned Eutyches and his followers, and was present at the general council of Chalcedon (A. D. 451), out of the twenty-eighth decree of which a contest sprung up between Anatolius and Leo, bishop of Rome, respecting the relative rank of their two sees.
A letter from Anatolius to Leo, written upon this subject in A. D. 457, is still extant. (Cave,
