ItalyThe first pope not venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church — a break in the pattern after centuries of automatic sanctity, and still one of only two omissions in the first five hundred years.
About
Liberius became bishop of Rome on 17 May 352, consecrated five days later as successor to Julius I. His fourteen-year papacy unfolded during the fourth century's doctrinal storms, and whatever happened in those years left him off the Roman Martyrology when it was compiled — the earliest pontiff to miss the roll. Only one other pope in that half-millennium, Anastasius II, shares the distinction. The Greek Menology, Eastern Christianity's measure of sainthood, did record him. He died on 24 September 366, his legacy a footnote about absence rather than act.
