                  <p xml:lang="fr">Ce thème, attesté assez tardivement au IXe siècle,
                      était situé au nord de l’Asie Mineure. Il était particulièrement réputé pour
                      fournir des eunuques au Palais. La population était considérée dans la capitale
                      comme fruste, mais de grandes lignées, comme la famille de l’impératrice
                      Théodora, les Doukai étaient issus de cette région.
                      Le début de la légende est resté hors champ, ce qui nous prive du
                      nom du juge et de la dignité qu’il portait, à moins que ce ne soit celle de
                      protospathaire <hi rend="italic">épi tou Chrysotriklinou</hi>, d’après les lettres lisibles de la
                      première ligne conservée. Un autre juge de Paphlagonie, nommé Michel,
                      avait lui aussi choisi l’archange Michel pour illustrer le droit de son sceau
                      et cumulait les charges de juge de l’Hippodrome et de Paphlagonie, mais ce
                      n’est pas notre sigillant [1]. Un autre plomb, illustré par le même archange,
                      a été gravé par un protospathaire et juge Michel, mais il ne fait référence
                      qu’à la Paphlagonie [2]. Les lettres initiales du nom final, qui était bref, sont
                      écrasées, ce qui interdit toute solution certaine [3].
