Flavius Hypatius was an Eastern Roman noble who held the position of commander in the East during the reign of Justin I, and was chosen by the mob as emperor during the Nika riots in Constantinople against Justinian I. Hypatius himself tried as hard as he could to stay out of it, but was executed in the aftermath of the riots.
