ROMANUS I

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 583 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
ROMANUS I . (Lecapenus), who shared the imperial throne with
Constantine
  VII. (q.v.) and exercised all the real power from 919 to 944, was
admiral
  of the Byzantine
fleet
  on the
Danube
  when, hearing of the defeat of the army at Achelous (917), he resolved to sail for
Constantinople
 . After the
marriage
  of his daughter
Helena
  to
Constantine
  he was first proclaimed " basileopater " in 919 and soon after crowned colleague of his son-in-law. His reign, which was uneventful, except for an attempt to check the
accumulation
  of landed property, was terminated by his own sons, Stephen and Constantine, who in 944 carried him off to the
island
  of Prote and compelled him to become a monk. He died in 948.
