Who was potentially involved in the negotiations for Marcian's throne candidacy?

  • Zeno

  • Leo I

  • Ardabur

  • Pulcheria

Answer

Zeno was potentially involved in the negotiations for Marcian's throne candidacy because he was the co-emperor at the time. He was a powerful figure in the Byzantine Empire and could have used his influence to help Marcian become emperor. However, it is not clear whether he actually did anything to help Marcian or if he just remained neutral.
