Kriskes 2 was bishop of Vibo in Calabria; he was one of the hundred and twenty-five Western bishops who attended the Council of Rome at Easter 680, and who subscribed the decree condemning monotheletism: Riedinger, p. 146, line 13 (= Mansi XI 303-304) (Κρέσκης ἐλάχιστος ἐπίσκοπος τῆς ἁγίας ἐκκλησίας Βιβῶνος ἐπαρχίας Καλαβρίας; the Latin version, printed in Riedinger, p. 147, line 9, calls him "Crescis exiguus episcopus sanctae ecclesiae Vibonensis"). (This record replaces that for Orestes 1).
