Konstantinos 271 was a hegoumenos of an unknown monastery in Constantinople, who was the addressee of a letter from Theodore the Stoudite (Theodoros 15), written between 816 and 818; as a supporter of the veneration of icons he had been sent into exile to Thrace (ἐν τῇ Θρᾳκῴων χώρᾳ: p. 497, line 7) but was subsequently transferred back to Constantinople: Theod. Stud., Ep. 363, pp. 496-497 (addressed Κωνσταντίνῳ ἡγουμένῳ).
