Constantine VIII (Greek: Κωνσταντίνος Η΄ Kōnstantinos VIII) (960 – 11 November 1028) was reigning Byzantine Emperor from 15 December 1025 until his death. He was the son of the Emperor Romanos II and Theophano and the younger brother of the eminent Basil II who died childless and thus left the rule of the Byzantine Empire in his hands.
