Makarios 5 was hegoumenos of the monastery of the Heraklion (in Bithynia, but the identification is uncertain; see F. Halkin, "Saint Antoine le Jeune et Petronas le vainqueur des arabes en 863 (d'après un texte inédit)", in Anal. Boll.. 62 (1944), p. 212, n. 3); he welcomed the entrance to the monastery of Antonios the Younger (Antonios 12)(in or soon after the Triumph of Orthodoxy, in 843); when Antonios 12 sought somewhere more secluded, Makarios 5 was unwilling to let him leave but sent him finally to a metochion of the monastery in a quiet place in Constantinople called All Saints; there his promise that Antonios 12 would enjoy peace and quiet proved correct: Vita Anton. Iun. (BHG 142 Addit.) 4-6. Antonios 12 went to All Saints in 848. Cf. also Petros 127.
