Konstantinos 43 was a land and property owner in the village called Pegadia close to the district of Petzika (near the route from Kalon Oros in Lydia to the monastery of St Porphyrios, on the banks of the river Rhyndakos), with whom Peter of Atroa (Petros 34) once stayed while travelling (παρά τινι τῶν οἰκούντων τοὔνομα Κωνσταντίνῳ πρὸς τὰ μέρη τοῦ Πετζικᾶ, ἐν κώμῃ Πηγαδία); Konstantinos 43 had built a house nearby close to some ancient baths, but could not use it on account of the demons who supposedly infested the place until Petros 34 expelled them: Vita Petr. Atr. 61, p. 185.

Konstantinos 43 also owned a field, which had remained unsown for three years because of an insect plague: Vita Petr. Atr. 62, p. 185. The story is narrated among events under the reign of the emperor Michael II (Michael 10). Neither Pegadia nor Petzika are identifiable; cf. Laurent, La Vie merveilleuse, p. 184, n. 1.
