Basilios 49 was bishop of an unnamed see; owner of a seal dateable to the early to mid ninth century: Laurent, Corpus V 1, 964. Obv.: invocative monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει with the legend τῷ σῷ δούλῳ. Rev.: Βας - [ιλ]ει - [] επισκ - οπῳ. The date given by Laurent is early ninth century, but the form of the beta indicates a date not before the early to mid ninth.
