Abstract
In this research we will address the relationships between the papacy and the Eastern Roman Empire during the first half of the VIII century. We are going to defend the next affirmation: Popes acted as the main articulators of imperial power in Italy during these years. For a complete analysis about our topic, we will attend the dark situation of the empire, the weaknesses of different emperors, the political fragmentation of italian peninsula, and mostly, encounters and hostilities between pontiffs and emperors. We will focus in the analysis of the sources at our disposal, wich on our opinion demonstrate that popes acted as imperial officials in political sphere.Keywords:
