Flavius Areobindus Dagalaifus Areobindus[1][2][3] (‹See Tfd›Greek: Ἀρεόβινδος; fl. 479–512) was an Eastern Roman general and politician. The scion of a distinguished line, he led troops in the Anastasian War, and served as consul in 506. During an urban riot in 512, Areobindus evaded a mob which wanted to force a change of government by proclaiming him emperor. He died soon after.[4]
