John VI Kantakouzenos, Cantacuzenus, or Cantacuzene (Iōánnēs Ángelos Palaiológos Kantakouzēnós; ;  – 15 June 1383) was a Greek nobleman, statesman, and general. He served as grand domestic under Andronikos III Palaiologos and regent for John V Palaiologos before reigning as Byzantine emperor in his own right from 1347 to 1354. Deposed by his former ward, he was forced to retire to a monastery under the name and spent the remainder of his life as a monk and historian. At age 90 or 91 at his death, he was the longest-lived of the Roman emperors.
