Pope John V (Latin: Ioannes V; died 2 August 686) was the bishop of Rome from 23 July 685[1] to his death on 2 August 686.[2] He was the first pope of the Byzantine Papacy consecrated without prior imperial consent, and the first in a line of ten consecutive popes of Eastern origin. His papacy was marked by reconciliation between the city of Rome and the Empire.
