Basilios 130 was hegoumenos of an unnamed monastery, he was the addressee of two letters from Theodoros 15 (Theodore the Stoudite) between 816 and 818: Theod. Stud., Ep. 317 (a. 816/818), Ep. 389 (a. 817/818) (both addressed Βασιλείῳ ἡγουμένῳ). Basilios 130 and his monks suffered exile, imprisonment and beatings for their support of the veneration of icons during the persecution under Leo V (Leo 15) (σου ἡ ὁσιότης σὺν τῷ ἱερῷ ὑπηκόῳ); Basilios 130 had tried to visit Theodoros 15 before suffering persecution himself but failed to see him and so wrote to him instead, and Theodoros 15 replied with a letter of encouragement: Theod. Stud., Ep. 317. Later Basilios 130 wrote to Theodoros 15 again, about the repentance of Hypatios 7, and Theodoros 15 replied on the subject of the treatment of those who had lapsed but repented; Basilios 130 was living with Prokopios 20 at the time; he is addressed as ὦ πατρότης ἁγία and πατέρ: Theod. Stud., Ep. 389.
