Sisinnius was Syrian, his father named John - the rest of his early life lost to silence. By the time he was elected bishop of Rome on 15 January 708, severe gout had left him weak, his body failing even as he took the throne. In those twenty days he consecrated a bishop for Corsica and ordered the reinforcement of the walls surrounding the papal capital. On 4 February 708, he died. They buried him in Old St. Peter's Basilica, and Constantine succeeded him.
