 | | Martin I, born near Todi, Umbria in the place now named after him Pian S. Martino, was Pope from 649 to 655, succeeding Pope Theodore I in June or July 649. |
 | | In this condemnation were included, not only the Ecthesis or exposition of faith of the patriarch Patriarch Sergius I for which the emperor Heraclius had stood sponsor, but also the typus of Paul, the successor of Sergius, which had the support of the reigning emperor (Constans II). |
 | | These orders were found impossible to carry out for a considerable space of time, but at last Martin was arrested in the Lateran on June 15, 653, hurried out of Rome, and conveyed first to Naxos, Greece and subsequently to Constantinople by September 17, 654. |
