Romanus IV (Romanus Diogenes) , d. 1072, Byzantine emperor (1068-71). A Cappadocian general, he succeeded Constantine X by marrying his widow, Eudocia Macrembolitissa. After some early successes against the Seljuk Turks he was crushingly defeated and captured (1071) by Alp Arslan at Manzikert . He was ransomed and promised to pay tribute, but he was deposed and blinded by his stepson, Michael VII, and soon died.
