            John was an ascetic, living in extreme poverty, which brought him great fame in Constantinople. His nickname "Nesteutes" (the Faster) stems from his ascetic rigour. Because of his general acceptance as a holy man, Tiberius decided to make him patriarch after the death of Eutychius in April 582. He fought against supposed pagans in Constantinople, as is remembered in Joh. Eph., EH 5.15.
