The former residential episcopal see of Dodona, situated in the Roman province of Epirus Vetus, is now a titular see of the Catholic Church.〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana 2013 ISBN 978-88-209-9070-1), "Sedi titolari", p. 882〕 == History == The following information is drawn from the article by Louis Petit in the 1907 Catholic Encyclopedia, which considered the see of Dodona to be identical with that of Bonitza, then called "Bodone".〔(Louis Petit, "Bodone" in ''Catholic Encyclopedia'' (New York 1907) )〕 (The ''Annuario Pontificio'' treats the titular sees of Bonitza and Dodona as distinct.)〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'', pp. 851 and 882〕 At an early date a Christian church was built on the site of the temple of Zeus at Dodona. There are records of some early bishops of Dodona: *Theodorus was present at the First Council of Ephesus in 431; *Philotheus appeared at the Council of Chalcedon in 451; *Uranius, in 458, signed the letter of the bishops of Epirus Vetus to Emperor Leo I the Thracian; *Philippus, in 516, subscribed a synodal report of the bishops of Epirus to Pope Hormisdas concerning the election of John to the See of Nicopolis, the metropolis of the province. When Naupactus replaced Nicopolis as metropolitan see about the end of the 10th century, Dodona was the first suffragan see. It is unknown when the residential bishopric disappeared. 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「Dodona (see)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
