Konstantinos 11 was the nephew (or perhaps cousin) (ὁ ἀνεψιὸς) of the patriarch Konstantinos 4, in whose disgrace he shared in October 767 by having to lead the donkey on which his uncle was seated through the Diippion to the Hippodrome; he himself had previously had his nose mutilated (ῥινοκοπημένος): Theoph. AM 6259. He was presumably involved in the plot formed in 765 by Konstantinos 6 and others against the emperor Constantine V (Konstantinos 7), in which his uncle (Konstantinos 4) was also supposedly involved.
