Ioakeim Martianos (Ιωακείμ Μαρτινιανός, 1875-1955), was a Greek Orthodox bishop and author.
Martianos was born in Moscopole, modern southern Albania, and later graduated at the Halki seminary in Istambul. Martianos was positioned at the following bishoprics:[1]
- Berat: 1911-1924
- Paramythia: 1924-1925
- Nea Pelagonia (Ptolemaida): 1925-1942
- Kilkis: 1942-1945.
- Xanthi: 1945-1953.
Martianos also composed a voluminous treatise about his native town Moscopole.[2] This work has been described by various scholars as one of the best analysis of the town's mid 18th century desctruction,[3] although it concentrates on the Greek features of the town.[4]
