Leo III, Pope (Roman pope, saint, died 816)
|
Note: Leo was a Roman, the son of Atyuppius and Elizabeth. He was elected as pope on the very day his predecessor was buried, probably by the Romans to avoid interference of the Franks with the election. He recognized Charlemagne as "patricius" of the Romans, causing supporters of the previous pope, Adrian I (who had encouraged estrangement between East and West), to physically attack Leo. He fled across the Alps to his protector, Charlemagne, and Leo was safely escorted back to Rome. |
