Fravitta (also spelled Fravitas, Flavitas or Flavianus) (died 489) was the patriarch of Constantinople (488 - 489). He is regarded as a saint, and has a feast day of February 18. According to Nicephorus Callistus Xanthopoulos, on the death of Acacius, the emperor Zeno placed on the altar of the great church of Constantinople two sheets of paper. On one was written a prayer that God would send an angel to inscribe on the blank sheet the name of him whom He wished to be the patriarch. A fast of 40 days with prayer was ordered. The church was given into the custody of a confidential eunuch, the imperial chamberlain, and the imperial seal set on the casket containing the papers.
