Konstantinos 325 was a son of Anatolios 5; he was a hypatos; an inhabitant of the fortress of Caieta, he promised to pay ten and a half modii of grain to Elisabet 1 and Theodosios 78 for two casales, and swore his oath on the salvation of Konstantinos 324 and Andreas 64; the document is dated in October of indiction 3 at Caieta in the regnal years 19 and 9 of the emperor Theophilos 5 (a. 839); among the witnesses to the document was his son, Marinos 33: Capasso, Monumenta, Vol. I (1881), pp. 263-264 (= Codex diplomaticus Cajetanus I, nr. V, p. 10) ("ego Constantinus ypatus, filius Anatolii comitis, havitator autem huius castri Kaietani"; he subscribed the document, calling himself εγο Κονσταντηνους ηπατους).

He is identical with Constantinus, the father of Marinus (Marinos 33), who were hypatoi at Caieta; in a document dated January 15 of indiction 14, in the regnal year 24 of the emperor Michael and 2 of Bardas Caesar (a. 865), from Naples, they were given two casales by Theodosius praefecturius (Theodosios 78), which formerly belonged to Elisabet 1; she was sister of Constantinus, aunt of Marinos 33 and socera of Theodosios 78; Constantinus had to pay her each year ten modii of barley: Capasso, Monumenta, Vol. I, pp. 264-266 ("domino Constantino et domino Marino, gloriosos ypatos Kastri Kaietani, hoc est genitori et filio").
