Gregory V
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature
OF ARMENIA (surnamed Mansug, i.e., "the young," and Kahavej, "he who falls from on high"), succeeded his uncle, Gregory IV, in July 1193, although yet quite young. After having administered his office about one year, he conducted himself in such a manner as to make himself odious to the nobility as well as to the clergy. He was accused before Leo II, and was put in the fortress of Gobidarh. He died in 1195. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
