            A stepson of Belisarius, Photius embarked first on a military career before becoming a monk and, eventually, abbot of the monastery at the Nea church in Jerusalem, as reported in Joh. Eph., EH 1.31 and 32. Despite this, Justin II still employed him as military commander for restoring order in Egypt and for crushing a Samaritan uprising in Palestine.
