Theodoros 328 was a deacon and the addressee of a letter from Theodoros 15 (Theodore the Stoudite); he is styled τῆς ἀγάπης σου: Theod. Stud., Ep. 70, p. 186, line 2 (addressed Θεοδώρῳ διακόνῳ). The date is probably between 815 and 826. Deacon and oikonomos of the Great Church; in 824 he was sent by the emperor Michael II (Michael 10) on an embassy to the Western emperor Louis the Pious (Lodoïchos 2), together with Theodotos 47, Niketas 162 and Leo 275: Mansi XIV 419E (dated a. 824 April 10). The embassy is alluded to in a letter of Theodoros 15, asking Pantaleon 13 to help Theodotos 47 who was encountering problems because of the unnamed oikonomos of the Great Church (i.e. Theodoros 328) who had gone to the West with him (τοῦ συναπάραντος αὐτῷ οἰκονόμου τῆς ἐκκλησίας ἐν τῇ Δύσει: p. 780, lines 10-11): Theod. Stud., Ep. 523, p. 780. Possibly identical with Theodoros 66 (Theodoros Krithinos, future archbishop of Sicily).
