His reign constitutes an usurpation against Constantine V , who had retained control of several themes in Asia Minor . Rise to power . In about 713 , Emperor Anastasius II appointed the Armenian Artabasdus as governor ( " stratēgos " ) of the Armeniac theme ( Θέμα Άρμενιάκων , Thema Armeniakōn ) , the successor of the Army of Armenia , which occupied the old areas of the Pontus , Armenia Minor , and northern Cappadocia , with its capital at Amasea . After Anastasius ' fall , Artabasdus made an agreement with his colleague Leo , the governor of the Anatolic theme , to overthrow the new Emperor Theodosius III . This agreement was sealed with the engagement of Leo ' s daughter Anna to Artabasdos , and the marriage took place after Leo III ascended the throne in March 717 . Artabasdos was awarded the rank of " kouropalates " ( " master of the palace " ) and became commander ( count , " komēs " ) of the Opsikion theme , while retaining control of his original command . In June 741 or 742 , after the accession of Leo ' s son Constantine V to the throne , Artabasdus resolved to seize the throne and attacked his brother - in - law while the latter was traversing Asia Minor to fight the Arabs on the eastern frontier . While Constantine fled to Amorion , Artabasdus seized Constantinople amid popular support and was crowned emperor . Reign and downfall . Artabasdos abandoned his predecessor ' s religious policy of Iconoclasm and restored Orthodoxy with some support , including that of Pope Zacharias . Soon after his accession , Artabasdus crowned his wife Anna as " Augusta " and his son Nikephoros as co - emperor , while putting his other son Niketas in charge of the Armeniac theme . But while Artabasdus could rely also on the support of the themes of Thrace and Opsikion , Constantine secured for himself the support of the Anatolic and Thracesian themes . The inevitable clash came in May 743 , when Artabasdus led the offensive against Constantine but was defeated . Later the same year Constantine defeated Nicetas , and on November 2 , 743 Artabasdus ' reign came to an end as Constantine V entered Constantinople and apprehended his rival . Artabasdus and his sons were publicly blinded and relegated to the monastery of Chora on the outskirts of Constantinople . The date of his death is unknown . Family .
