Encyclopedia: Zeno (emperor)

Tarasicodissa, as he was known as a young man, was an Isaurian, a people who lived on the Mediterranean coast of Anatolia, in what is now Antalya. The Isaurians, like most borderland tribes, were looked upon as barbarians by the Romans even though they had been Roman citizens for more than two centuries. Still, a fortuitous turn of events ultimately placed Tarasicodissa on the throne in Constantinople.
