Facts and Events
Constantine II, also Kostandin II, (unknown[1] – after February 17, 1129[1]) was the fourth lord of Armenian Cilicia[2] or “Lord of the Mountains”[1] (1129[1]/1130[3]). The Chronique Rimée de la Petite Arménie (“The Rhymed Chronicle of Armenia Minor”) of Vahram of Edessa records that he was the son of Thoros I, lord of Armenian Cilicia.[1] His mother's name is not known.[1] He died a few months after his father's death in the course of a palace intrigue.[3] Vahram of Edessa, the historian tells us that he was cast into prison and poisoned to death.
Other historians (e.g., Jacob G. Ghazarian, Vahan M. Kurkjian) suggest that Thoros I died without a male heir[2] and was succeeded by Leon I.
