Anatolios 2 was hegoumenos of the monastery of St John of the Stoudion; owner of a seal dateable to the late eighth or early ninth century: Zacos II 908. Obv.: fleur-de-lis in a circular border; circular inscription reading +Κ(ύρι)ε βοή[θει] τῷ σῷ δούλῳ. Rev.: +Ανα - τολιῳ ἡ - γουμεν(ῳ) μ - ονης το[υ] - αγ(ιου) Ἰω(αννου) τω - ν Στουδ(ιου). The name and title read: Ἀνατολίῳ ἡγουμένῳ μονῆς τοῦ ἁγίου Ἰωάννου τῶν Στουδίου. He was a hegoumenos of the monastery of Stoudios; if the date assigned to the seal by the editors is correct, he was perhaps a predecessor of Theodore the Stoudite (Theodoros 15). Otherwise he could perhaps be identified with Anatolios 1 (early tenth century).
