The '''''Typos''''' of Emperor [[Constans II]] was an Imperial edict issued by him in September of 647 or 648 and meant to supersede [[Heraclius]]' ''[[Ecthesis]]''. "Typos" is short for "Typos tes pisteos" or "Pattern of the Faith."
It was probably the work of [[Patriarch ]] [[Paul II of Constantinople|Paul of Constantinople]] (r. 641-653), commissioned by the emperor. Attempting to secure peace during the [[Monothelitism]] controversy, it forbade the teaching of either the heretical [[Monothelitismheresy|heretical]] Monothelitism or the Orthodox [[Dyothelitism]], requiring that teaching should be limited only to that which had been decreed at the first five [[Ecumenical Councils]].
When Pope St. [[Martin the Confessor|Martin of Rome]] refused to accept the ''Typos'', he was deposed and exiled to Crimea in 655. St. [[Maximus the Confessor]] earned exile to Thrace in 653 for his own refusal to sign.
The text of the ''Typos'' is preserved in the ''Acta'' of the [[Lateran Council|Lateran Council of 649]].
