a Byzantine theologian, who lived in the latter half of the 9th century, was keeper of the archives of the great church of Constantinople. He was the friend and correspondent of Photius, and became archbishop of Nicomedia. Several of his homilies and three of his hymns are found in the Novum Auctarium of Combefis, volume 1. Combefis confounded the author with George the Pisidian. Among the unpublished works of George we mention a chronicle, but it is difficult to distinguish. between this and the chronicles of the other Georges. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
