Procopius was a Roman patrician and military leader.

Descended from the Roman usurper Procopius, Procopius was the father of Roman Emperor Anthemius, and married to the daughter of Flavius Anthemius.[1]

In the Roman–Sasanian War of 421–422, Procopius commanded soldiers of the late Roman army (possibly as a dux or comes rei militaris) and secured the rescue of Roman units that were ambushed by Zhayedan forces. In 422, he was an envoy in the conflict-ending negotiations. For these successes, Procopius was awarded the title of patrician and made magister militum per Orientem (possibly by Theodosius II to succeed Ardabur),[1] a post he held through at least 424.[2]
