Theodore, son of Peter the Patrician, hailed from Roman Mesopotamia and held some of the highest offices under Justin II. He had the rank of a patricius and led, in 576, an embassy to the Persian border for peace negotiations, as is attested by Joh. Eph., EH 4.35 and 6.12. He was a miaphysite and favoured Paul of Antioch in his dispute with Jacob Burd'oyo.
