Certainty: 2 Synod convened by Alexios I at Blachernai to discuss icon veneration
Leon, metropolitan of Chalcedon sent a letter to Nikolaos Adrianoupolites whose contents were deemed contrary to the teachings of the holy fathers on icon veneration. This forced Alexios I to summon a council of senators, prelates and monks to the great triklinos of Blachernai to discuss the question. There were more than 50 laymen present, though some were in clerical employment, around 30 churchmen with episcopal offices, around fifeen heads of monasteries, with a scattering of monks and deacons. At the end of the synod Leon of Chalcedon was condemned, unanimously, to exile, and left for Sozopolis in Pontos; his life there was made as comfortable as possible, but he remained intransigent and hostile to Alexios
