Encyclopedic overview

Pope Zachary (Latin: Zacharias; 679 – 15 March 752) was the bishop of Rome from 3 or 5 December 741 until his death on 15 March 752. He was the last pope of the Byzantine Papacy. Zachary built the original church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva, forbade the traffic of slaves in Rome, negotiated peace with the Lombards, and sanctioned Pepin the Short's usurpation of the Frankish throne from Childeric III. Zachary is regarded as a capable administrator and a skillful and subtle diplomat in a dangerous time.
