Konstantinos 14 was chartophylax of Hagia Sophia (χαρτοφύλακα τῆς μεγάλης ἐκκλησίας); he was sent by the empress Eirene 1 in late 797 with the bishop of Chrysopolis, Dorotheos 1, to make peace with the Arab commander Abdulmalik 2, who was raiding Cappadocia and Galatia; the mission failed: Theoph. AM 6290. Perhaps identical with Konstantinos 72.
