The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new proof of Markov's braid theorem, in terms of Seifert circles and Reidemeister moves. This means that the proof will be of combinatorial and essentially 2-dimensional nature. One characteristic feature of the author's approach is that nowhere in the proof he uses or refers to the braid axis. This allows for greater flexibility in various transformations of the diagrams considered. Other proofs of Markov's theorem can be found in [\textit{D. Bennequin}, Astérisque 107/108, 87-161 (1983; Zbl 0573.58022); \textit{J. S. Birman}, Braids, links, and mapping class groups, Ann. Math. Stud. 82 (1975; Zbl 0305.57013); \textit{A. A. Markov}, Rec.
