Dorotheos 6 was apparently strategos and basilikos spatharios; owner of a seal dateable to the seventh or eighth century: Konstantopoulos, JIAN 6, 530. The name and titles apparently read: Δ[ω]ροθεου .αν στρ[ατ]ηγου βασιλικου σπαθαριου. The reading of the seal is problematic. The placing of the title στρατηγου before βασιλικου σπαθαριου is not normal, and the meaning of the letters ".αν" is not clear. One possibility is to read: "kandidatou". The word στρατηγοῦ is a problem; possibly the reading needs to be corrected.
