Christianity
Pope Pius II dies in Ancona on August 14th . His remains are - for the time being - buried in St. Peter's Basilica. On August 30, after a three-day election in the Vatican , the conclave elects Pietro Barbo as the new Pope. He actually wanted to give himself the name Formosus II , but the cardinals persuaded him not to use this name. His second choice falls on the name of Marcus II , but the name of the evangelist does not seem appropriate to the cardinals, as they are generally unusual as names of the popes, like the names of the apostles . In this way they convince the new Pope to take on the name Paul II , who appears to be acceptable as the name of the Apostle of the Nations, who does not belong to the circle of the twelve and does not belong to the Evangelists. As was customary at that time, the cardinals demanded an election surrender from Paul II , but Paul II revoked his election surrender immediately after his coronation .
