Leontia (, fl. 610) was an empress of the Eastern Roman Empire as the wife of Phocas.
==Empress== Maurice reigned in the Byzantine Empire from 582 to 602. When he decreed that the Byzantine army was to spend the winter of 602/603 on the northern bank of the Danube, the exhausted troops instead mutinied against their emperor. Phocas would emerge as the leader of the mutinous army during its march to Constantinople. Maurice also faced citywide rioting within the capital, and fled the city prior to the arrival of Phocas and his troops.
