A Stoudite monk, Tithoios 1 was the addressee of three letters from Theodoros 15 (Theodore the Stoudite), written between 815 and 818: Theod. Stud., Ep. 178, 179, 365 (all addressed Τιθοίῳ τέκνῳ or similar). He was also mentioned in a number of other letters from the same period: Theod. Stud., Ep. 106, 109, 116, 130, 133, 223, 225. He lived for a while with Naukratios 1 and a group of other Stoudite monks, who included Euprepianos 1, Dometianos 1, Theodoulos 8, Kasianos 1, Metrophanes 4 and Neilos 1: Theod. Stud., Ep. 178. In 821 he was one of the disciples (μαθηταί) of Theodoros 15 and was noted for his piety: Vita C Theod. Stud. §57, p. 291, cf. Vita A Theod. Stud. 205C, Vita B Theod. Stud. 301D (ὁ φερέπονος Τιθόεις).
