Anatolius

Anatolius (; died 14 December 557) was a Byzantine official, active in the reign of Justinian I . He held the titles of curator domus divinae and honorary consul. He was killed in the Constantinople earthquake of 557.

Biography According to Agathias, Anatolius was responsible for the care (administration) of the houses and lands owned by the emperor Justinian I . His rank is given as curator and equal to a consul. This would make him a curator domus divinae (administrator of the private property of the imperial family) and honorary consul. The latter title means that Anatolius was a member of the Byzantine Senate with the rank of vir illustris.

On 14 December 557, Constantinople was hit by a great earthquake. The date is estimated based on the accounts of John Malalas and Theophanes the Confessor. Anatolius was killed by a falling piece of marble, evidently within his own residence.
