Christophoros 15 was a koubikoularios and parakoimomenos; owner of a seal dateable to the eighth century (see below): Seibt, Bleisiegel I, no. 52. Obv.: invocative monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει with the legend Χριστοφόρῳ. Rev.: +κου - βικουλα - ριῳ και παρ - ακυμωμ - ενῳ+. The same man probably (Seibt thinks certainly) owned a second seal which dates to the second quarter of the eighth century: Zacos and Veglery 770A. Obv.: +Ἅγια Τρίας, ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, βοήθει τῷ δούλῳ σοῦ+. Rev.: +Χριστοφόρῳ κουβικουλαρίῳ καὶ παρακοιμωμένῳ+. See Seibt, pp. 161-162. The first seal, with a cross before and after the legend (not before the eighth century) and letter forms characteristic of the sixth to the eighth century, but especially the eighth, is of eighth century date; the second, with a cross before and after the legends and with the less usual formula τῷ δούλῳ σοῦ, is probably of the second quarter of the eighth century. Seibt suggests (p. 162) that Christophoros and Staurakios 17 (Zacos and Veglery 2379) were parakoimomenoi under the emperor Leo III (Leo 3).
