Pope Sergius III
Sergius III, succeeded Christopher[?] as pope in
904 and reigned till 911. His pontificate, so far as is known, was remarkable for nothing but the rise of the "pornocracy" of Theodora and her daughters. Sergius restored the Lateran palace, which had been shattered by an earthquake.
After him, Anastasius[?] sat on the pontifical throne.
