Antonios 27 was a Stoudite monk and abbas (ἀββᾶ Ἀντωνίου); he is mentioned in a letter written by Theodore the Stoudite (Theodoros 15) at the height of the persecution of Stoudites under Leo V (Leo 15) (c. 816) to another Stoudite monk, Symeon 27; Antomios 27 and Symeon 27 are referred to as τέκνα μου (p. 287, line 29) and they apparently lived together (τοῦ συνόντος σοι τέκνου μου ἀββᾶ Ἀντωνίου: p. 286, lines 3-4): Theod. Stud., Ep. 165, pp. 286-287 (on the date, cf. Fatouros, pp.259*-260*).
