Herakleios Constantine was the eldest son of Herakleios by his first wife Fabia-Eudokia. He was made co-emperor to his father from 613 and appears on his coins from that point. His stepmother and first cousin, Martina, was accused of his murder shortly following Herakleios' own death in 641, although he likely died of illness as he was noted for being sickly. He was immediately succeeded by his younger half-brother and first cousin once removed, Constantine Herakleios (known as Herakleonas), who was in turn deposed the same year infavour of Herakleios Constantine's son, Constantine (known as Constans II). Herakleios Constantine is usually known as Constantine III to avoid confusion.
