was born at Lorhi, and occupied the patriarchal see of Armenia from 1071 to 1073. When Gregory II had abdicated, in order to retire to the Black Mountain, in the Taurus, George, who had been his secretary, was elected patriarch.

Being deposed in 1073, he retired to Tarsus, where he soon after ended his days. Gregory II took the place which George III had occupied for two years. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
