Zeno
Eastern Roman emperor (474-91). A military leader, he married the daughter of Emperor Leo I (c.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'é tat, he returned to Constantinople in 476. He made peace with the Vandals in Africa, put down a rebellion in Asia Minor (484), and persuaded the Ostrogoths to leave the Eastern Empire by making Theodoric king of Italy (489). Seeking to reconcile orthodox Christians and Monophysites, he caused a schism with Rome (484-519).
