Theodosius II supported his relative Ashot I of Iberia, ruler of Tao-Klarjeti, against Principality of Kakheti and its ally Arab emir of Tiflis, that invaded Inner Iberia (Shida Kartli), as a result Kakhetians were pushed from central Iberian lands[1] to east of the Ksani River. In 837, Byzantine Emperor Theophilos sent patrikios Bardas together with the general Theophobos in a campaign against the Abkhazians, but the Byzantines were defeated.[2][3]
Theodosius II died without heir and he was succeeded by his younger brother Demetrius II of Abkhazia, who disputed the throne for many years.
