[edit] Events
- Battle of Ravenna (729) is fought between the troops of Byzantine Emperor Leo III, the Isaurian, and a force of Italians, raised by Pope Gregory II in defense of image worship--which Leo had outlawed. After a severe struggle, the Greeks are routed; thousands are slaughtered in flight to their ships. The waters of the Po River are so infected with blood, it is said, that for six years the inhabitants of Ravenna would not eat fish from the river.
