Theodoros 346 was the son of Ioannes 489 (known as the Kandidatos); he was also called Chilas and was the son-in-law of Platon 24 patrikios (Θεόδωρον τὸν υἱὸν Ἰωάννου τοῦ Κανδιδάτου λεγομένου, τὸν ἐπίκλην Χιλὰ, τὸν νῦν γαμβρὸν τοῦ κυροῦ Πλάτωνος τοῦ πατρικίου); during the questioning of Maximos 10 (Maximus the Confessor) at Constantinople in 652/653 he testified that once at Rome in conversation with Maximos 10 he heard Maximos 10 insulting the emperor; Maximos 10 denied this, stating that he had met Theodoros 346 only once and that was in the company of the priest Theocharistos 3 at a meeting arranged by the primikerios, Anonymus 656: Relatio Motionis III, 113C. The use of the word νῦν might suggest that Theodoros 346 had married the daughter of Platon (Anonyma 91) between the trial of Maximos 10 in 652/653 and the composition of the Relatio Motionis, or else that at the date of the trial the marriage was recent.
