Greetings all,

Today we commemorate Constantine VII being raised as Emperor on May 15th in 908 AD:

This was a purely symbolic gesture as Constantine VII was three years old at the time.

Happily he grew up to be a good ruler, as well as a scholar and writer. He was the author of "De Ceremoniis", a compendium of Byzantine court rituals, and several other works.
