Desenterraron a un Papa para Juzgarlo: El Sínodo del Cadáver

Is it possible to judge a man who has been dead for months? In 897, Rome witnessed one of the most disturbing events in history: the Cadaver Synod. Pope Stephen VI ordered the exhumation of the body of his predecessor, Pope Formosus, to place him on a throne, dress him in papal vestments, and subject him to a trial for "crimes" he supposedly committed during his lifetime. In this Hidden Rarity video, we explore the true story behind this macabre tribunal. Why go to such extremes? Was it simply political revenge by the Spoleto family or a desperate move by Stephen VI to legitimize his own rise to power? #HiddenRarity #DarkHistory #PopeFormosus #CadaverSynod #MiddleAges #MysteriesOfHistory #Vatican #romantic I Am a Man Who Will Fight for Your Honor by Chris Zabriskie is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
