The Archeparchy of Amida (informally of Diyarbakır) is the only Chaldaean rite Catholic diocese in Turkey, with cathedral archiepiscopal see in Diyarbakır, in Turkish Kurdistan. == History == It was established in 1531 as an eparchy, the Chaldean Diocese of Amid(a), the present Diyarbekir in Turkish Kurdistan, where it has its cathedral episcopal see, the Cathédrale chaldéen Sainte-Marite, but the archeparch (archbishop) now resides in Beyoğlu, Istanbul. In June 1915 it gained territory from the suppressed Chaldean Catholic Diocese of Seert (now a titular see), and again on 3 July 1957 from the suppressed Chaldean Catholic Diocese of Gazireh (which isn't even a titular see anymore). It was promoted to Archeparchy (Eastern Catholic archdiocese) on 3 January 1966. The Archeparch (archbishop) is immediately subject to the Patriarch of Babylon, who heads the Chaldean Catholic Church. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chaldean Catholic Archeparchy of Amida」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
