Anastasius III
Anastasius III (born, Rome [Italy]—died June or August 913, Rome) was the pope from April or June 911 to 913. Because his pontificate came during a period when Rome was under the control of the house of Theophylactus, he had little authority or freedom of action. He is credited, however, with granting privileges to ecclesiastical dioceses in Italy.
