Secundus of Ptolemais was a 4th-century bishop of Ptolemais, excommunicated after the First Council of Nicaea for his nontrinitarianism.[1][2]
Secundus, was bishop of Ptolemais and a patron of Arius,[3] and is listed among those present at the council of Nicaea.[4][5] Theonas and Secundus were the only bishops at the Council of Nicaea who refused to accept its decree nor sign the Nicaean Creed, a position for which he was deposed by the bishop of Alexandria, and sent into exile[6] He later recovered his bishopric as part of Constantine the Great's attempts at reconciliation, though his Arian successor Stephanus of Ptolemais was deposed in about 360.
