Stephanos 124 was a basilikos spatharios and strategos of Kephallenia; owner of a seal dateable to the ninth century: Konstantopoulos, JIAN 5, 111. The name and titles read; Στ[εφάνῳ] τῷ βασι[λ]ηκῷ σπαθ[αρ]ίῳ κὲ στρατηγῷ Κεφαλωνία[ς ]. The reading of the name is uncertain. Seibt, ByzSlav 36 (1975) 211, believed the seal was wrongly read and dated by Konstantopoulos; he dated it to the eighth century and identified the owner with the owner of Zacos and Veglery 919; see Lykastos 11 and Lykastos 13, and see also Nesbitt and Oikonomides, DO Seals II 1.15.
