Symbatios or Sabbatios, surnamed the Armenian ({{lang-gr|Συμβάτιος/Σαββάτιος ὁ Ἀρμένιος}}) was a senior Byzantine aristocrat and official in the mid-860s. Symbatios was the son-in-law of the Caesar Bardas, the de facto ruler of the Byzantine Empire during the later reign of his nephew Michael III ({{reign|842|867}}) .{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ11879 Bardas (#791/corr.)]; [https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ18395 Symbatios (#7169)]}} By 866, he held the rank of patrikios and the position of logothetes tou dromou.{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ18395 Symbatios (#7169)]}} Despite his ties to Bardas, he was a leading member in the conspiracy that resulted in the murder of Bardas on 21 April 866, in hopes of succeeding him.{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ18395 Symbatios (#7169)]}} When Emperor Michael III publicly justified the murder of Bardas on 26 May, he claimed that Symbatios and another high court official, the chamberlain Basil the Macedonian, had warned him that Bardas intended to depose him.{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ18395 Symbatios (#7169)]}} However, Michael promoted Basil the Macedonian rather than Symbatios, who had to content himself with being named strategos of the Thracesian Theme. From there he rebelled in summer 866 against the growing power of Basil, along with the governor of the Opsician Theme, George Peganes. The rebellion was defeated in the following winter, and its leaders were arrested. Symbatios was mutilated, losing one eye and his right hand. He was publicly humiliated by being forced to beg for three days in the ta Laousou quarter, before being put under house arrest.{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ18395 Symbatios (#7169)]}} When Basil the Macedonian deposed Michael III and became sole emperor in September 867, however, he lifted the banishment of Symbatios and the other rebels, and restored their property to them.{{sfn|PmbZ|loc=[https://www.degruyter.com/view/PMBZ/PMBZ29599 Symbatios (#27445)]}} ReferencesSources
