Cantio 1 was bishop of Sena (i.e. Siena) ("Cantio, episcopus ecclesiae Senensis"); in 844 he was one of the Italian bishops who attended the Council of Rome with Drogo 1; they had not been summoned by their metropolitans but went because they had criticisms to make against pope Sergius II (Sergios 60): Lib. Pont. 104. 14.
