Anthimus I (Greek: Ἄνθιμος; died after 536) was a Miaphysite patriarch of Constantinople from 535–536. He was the bishop or archbishop of Trebizond before accession to the Constantinople see. He was deposed by Pope Agapetus I for adhering to Miaphysitism (the belief that Jesus had only one nature completely divine and human) before March 13, 536, and later hidden by Theodora in her quarters for 12 years, until her death.
