Conon was miaphysite bishop of Tarsus and a leader of the tritheist movement in the late 560s and early 570s. When the tritheist champion John Philoponus wrote a treatise in which he postulated the creation of new impalpable bodies at the resurrection, Conon disagreed with him, thus causing a schism among the tritheists. Joh. Eph., EH 1.31, relates that Conon suffered from the persecutions in the 570s and was imprisoned in a monastery in Jerusalem.
