Constantine Phokas Constantine Phokas ( , died 953 / 954 ) was a Byzantine aristocrat and general . Constantine was the youngest son of Bardas Phokas the Elder , and brother of the general and later emperor Nikephoros II Phokas and the general Leo Phokas the Younger . When his father was appointed as Domestic of the Schools ( commander - in - chief of the Byzantine army ) in 945 , Constantine was appointed " strategos " ( military governor ) of the theme of Seleucia , on the Empire ' s southeastern border with the Muslim world . He participated in his father ' s campaigns against the Muslims , and was captured by the Hamdanid Emir of Aleppo , Sayf al - Dawla , at the Battle of Marash in 953 . Constantine took part in Sayf al - Dawla ' s subsequent triumphal entry into Aleppo , but he soon fell ill and died ( probably in early 954 ) . Some Byzantine sources however suggest that he was poisoned by Sayf al - Dawla after refusing to convert to Islam , while Arab sources claim that he was poisoned by Byzantine agents after Sayf al - Dawla refused a huge ransom offered by Bardas Phokas . At any rate , Constantine ' s death seems to have been blamed on Sayf al - Dawla by the Byzantines , and many Arab captives , including some of the Hamdanid emir ' s reltives , were executed as a result . Some Byzantine and Arab sources claim that this resulted in the failure of a peace embassy sent by the Byzantines in June 954 , under Paul Monomachos , but modern scholars discount this .
