Assumingly, where is Nestorius believed to have died?

  • Exile in Upper Egypt

  • Constantinople

  • Antioch

  • Rome

Answer

Nestorius is believed to have perished during his banishment in Upper Egypt. He was the Archbishop of Constantinople and was condemned for his theological views, particularly his denial of the title "Theotokos" for the Virgin Mary, which led to his exile in 431 AD. He spent his remaining days in a remote desert location, where the harsh conditions and isolation likely contributed to his eventual demise.
