Teobaldo Boccapecci
Italian cardinal, antipope 1124 / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with Pope Celestine II.
Teobaldo Boccapecci or Boccapeconai (Latin: Thebaldus Buccapecuc) was elected pope after the death of Pope Callixtus II on 13 December 1124 and took the name Celestine II, but factional violence broke out during the investment ceremony and he resigned before being consecrated or enthroned in order to avoid schism.
