Pope Romanus
Pope Romanus was Pope from August to November 897.
He was born in Gallese, Italy near Civita Castellana.
He was elected to succeed the murdered Pope Stephen VI and was deposed a few months later by one of the factions, which then governed Rome. His short rule was regarded as a virtuous one by the historian Frodoard. He ended his days as a monk, although this may mean simply that he was deposed.[1] His date of death is unknown.
