Ceolfrith
Saint Ceolfrid( or Ceolfrith,; c. 642 – 716) was an Anglo- Saxon Christian abbot and saint.
He is best known as the warden of Bede from the age of seven until his death in 716.
He was the Abbot of Monkwearmouth- Jarrow Abbey, and a major contributor to the project to produce the Codex Amiatinus Bible.
He died in Burgundy while en route to deliver a copy of the codex to Pope Gregory II in Rome.
Gregory II the Martyrophile
Gregory II the Martyrophile,( Armenian: Գրիգոր Բ. Վկայասէր), was the Catholicos of the Armenian Apostolic Church between 1066 and 1105.
On the death of Khachig II the Byzantines had hoped to leave Armenia without a catholicos for good, part of an effort to subdue them as a people and assimilate them into the Greek rite.
However,
Mary the daughter of King Gagik- Abas of Kars was a favorite of Byzantine Empress Eudokia Makrembolitissa and obtained through her influence the permission to fill the empty seat.
A meeting of the clergy elected Gregory the Martyrophile, son of Gregorius Magistratus, as pontiff.
Gregory had been engaged in literary pursuits from a young age, had been honored by the emperor as a Duke, and had succeeded his father on his death as governor of Mesopotamia.
He had grown tired of the world and embraced a monastic life.
On his election he changed his original name of Vahram to Gregory in honor of Gregory the Illuminator.
His name the Martyrophile came from his having compiled the memoirs of Christian martyrs.
The Byzantine army invaded again and Gregory abdicated in 1071 since he was unable to stave off these problems.
He appointed a monk George Lorensis as his successor and retired to a mountain around Tarsus.
He was still regarded by the Armenian people as pontiff however and they referred to him for advice.
Lorensis was offended by this and took imprudent measures as a response, at which point the clergy met at Gregory's retreat and deposed Lorensis.
He had reigned for two years and Gregory resumed the office officially.
At this same time a monk named Sarkis exercised control in his local region as pontiff and was succeeded by Theodorus, but the Armenian Church considers neither these two nor Lorensis to be canon pontiffs.
Shortly after regaining his position as pontiff around 1074, Gregory made a visit to Ani which at that point was in the hands of the Persians and resided there a few months.
He then returned home and wrote a letter to Pope Gregory VII, who responded in a friendly manner.
Gregory II traveled to Rome to visit the Pope who was very curious to learn about the Armenian church.
After a few months, Gregory II then made pilgrimage to Jerusalem and then went to Memphis, Egypt where he lived for a year.
He appointed a nephew of his, Gregorius, as prelate at Memphis and then finally returned home.
With Gregory II living in Tarsus, the eastern Armenians considered themselves without a pontiff and obtained his sanction to elect his nephew, Parsegh bishop of Ani, as their pontiff.
Two years later, a prince who settled in Marash elected Paul, abbot of Varagavank, to be considered pontiff of the church in that region.
This means there were now four pontiffs of the Armenian church:
Gregory II in the region of Mount Tarsus, Parsegh his nephew in Ani for the eastern Armenians, the previously- mentioned Theodorus, and Paul in Marash.
There was much enmity between them and the cause of much confusion.
Paul saw this and decided to relinquish his seat and retire to his convent, at which time the nation at large recognized Gregory II alone as pontiff, with Parsegh as his deputy.
In 1087 Parsegh deposed Theodorus and settled at Edessa.
In 1103, after many requests, Gregory II finally accepted the invitation of Kogh Vasil to move his residence to Rapan, in the vicinity of the city of Cheson, to spend his last years.
As he left his Tarsus monastery, he took with him wards Gregory III of Cilicia and Nerses IV the Graceful, in whom he recognized future greatness.
He entrusted the two preteens to the care of his nephew and deputy Parsegh as well as to his host Kogh Vasil, and stated that on his death Parsegh should be made Catholicos and after him should follow young Gregory.
He died shortly after and was buried there at the red convent at Rapan near Cheson.
Parsegh of Cilicia
Basil of Ani or Basil Pahlavuni (died 13 November 1113 AD) was Armenian Catholicos of Cilicia from 1105 to 1113, and nephew of Gregory II.
Catholicos Gregory II had moved to Tarsus, far from the center of Armenian civilization for the past many centuries, so the eastern Armenians considered themselves without a pontiff.
Gregory had previously visited Ani and set up his nephew Parsegh as bishop there, and so later they gained Gregory's sanction to elect Parsegh their pontiff.
Around this time two other rivals named themselves pontiff of their own regions: Theodorus and one named Paul in Marash.
There was much enmity between them and much confusion among the people.
Paul saw this and decided to relinquish his seat and retire to his convent, at which time the nation at large recognized Gregory II alone as pontiff, with Parsegh as his deputy.
In 1087 Parsegh deposed Theodorus and settled at Edessa.
In 1103, after many requests, Gregory II finally accepted the invitation of
Basilius the Crafty, lord of Marash and Kesoun, to move his residence to Rapan, near Kesoun, to spend his last years.
Gregory II took with him his wards Gregory III of Cilicia and Nerses IV the Graceful, in whom he recognized future greatness.
He entrusted the two boys to the care of his nephew and deputy Parsegh and his host Basilius, and stated that on his death Parsegh should be made Catholicos to be followed by Gregory.
Parsegh succeeded Gregory II two years later, in 1105.
Parsegh had his seat sometimes in the Red Convent in the desert of Shughr and sometimes in the city of Edessa.
He saw to the education of Gregory and Nerses, and soon ordained Gregory a priest.
During this period the Persians invaded Cilicia but were defeated by the forces of Basilius.
Two years later though Cilicia was once again invaded, this time by Scythians.
In 1111, they attacked the fortress of Zovk, held by Gregory and Nerses's father Apirat Pahlavi, grandson of Gregorius Magistratus, who was killed.
Parsegh died in the Red Convent after being pontiff for thirty-one years, eight of those as sole ruler of the Armenian Church.
Based on Gregory II's wishes, Gregory the son of Apirat was elected Catholicos at the Red Convent, only twenty years old.
Tiberius Petasius
Tiberius Petasius was a Byzantine usurper in Italy around 729 and 730.
Nothing is known of his early life, but judging from his Latin name" Petasius"( little felt sun- hat) he was a native of Italy.
He claimed imperial power around 729 when large parts of Italy and rest of the empire rebelled against the Iconoclastic policies of Emperor Leo III, who had been excommunicated by Pope Gregory II.
He may have been chosen by local Italian assemblies with the intention eventually taking power in Constantinople, but failed uprisings in Greece seem to have disheartened the courage of the Italians with the issue.
His power seems to have been centered on the area of Rome, but nothing else is known of his short stay in power.
Tiberius Petasius' power came to an end sometime in 730 when he was defeated by Exarch of Ravenna Eutychius with support of Pope Gregory II and killed in Monterano, with his head sent to Leo III as a gift.
