Anonymi 29 were three patricians (patriqyu) who defeated the Arabs in Lycia, when the Arabs attacked Lycia a second time under Constantine IV (Konstantinos 2); allegedly thirty thousand Arabs perished and the remainder escaped by ship but were destroyed in storms: Bar Hebr., p. 101. The date was apparently c. 671 (shortly after the year 981 Sel., = 669/670).
