Eupraxios 1 was a gloriosus; he and Platon 12 advised the emperor (Constans, i.e. Konstans 1) that Olympios 1 should use the army in Italy to arrest pope Martin (Martinos 6) and promote monothelete doctrines there immediately, if the army were agreeable, but if not, at a later date when he should have won over the army: Lib. Pont. 76. 4 ("quomodo nobis suggessit Platon gloriosus patricius, Eupraxius gloriosus"). The date was 649; see Olympios 1.
