Anastasios reverses the ecclesiastical policies of Philippikos …

Years: 714 - 714

Anastasios reverses the ecclesiastical policies of Philippikos and tries to reform the army before he, too, is deposed.

Assuring Pope Constantine of his orthodoxy, Anastasios withdraws Philippikos' Monothelite decrees, which had imposed the heretical doctrine of a single will of Christ.

Militarily, he fortifies Constantinople, selects the island of Rhodes as an imperial naval base, and sends the Isaurian Leo to defend Syria against the Arabs.
