Quick facts Constantine II Կոստանդին Բ, Lord of Armenian Cilicia ...

The Chronique Rimée de la Petite Arménie (“The Rhymed Chronicle of Armenia Minor”) of Vahram of Edessa records that he was the son of Thoros I, lord of Armenian Cilicia.[citation needed] His mother's name is not known.[citation needed]

He and his father's deaths occurred during 1129.[1]

After the death of Thoros, his only son and heir was cast into prison by some wicked people, who administered to him a poisonous drug, thus the principality came to Leon, the brother of Thoros (…).

Other historians (e.g., Jacob G. Ghazarian, Vahan M. Kurkjian) suggest that there were no successors for Toros.[2] and was succeeded by Leon I.[4]
