:''This is not Euroea in Epiro (titular see)'' Euroea in Phoenicia was a city in the late Roman province of Phoenicia Secunda.〔Joseph Bingham, ''Origines ecclesiasticæ; or, The antiquities of the Christian Church'' (1834), p. 307.〕 today Hawarin, north of al-Qaryatayn and on the road from Damascus to Palmyra. There are ruins of a Roman castellum and of a basilica. ==History== The true name of this city seems to have been Hawârin; as such it appears in a Syriac inscription of the fourth to the sixth century. According to Ptolemy〔V, xiv.〕 it was situated in the Palmyrene province. Georgius Cyprius calls it Euarios or Justinianopolis. == Bishopric == The ''Notitiae episcopatuum'' of the Patriarchate of Antioch (6th century) gives Euroea as a suffragan see of the archdiocese of Damascus.〔See Echos d'Orient, X (1907), 145.〕 One of its bishops, Thomas, is known in 451; there is some uncertainty about another, John, who lived a little later.〔Lequien, ''Oriens christianus'', II, 847.〕 Euroea is included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 2013, ISBN 978-88-209-9070-1), p. 891〕 Until 1935 it was called Evaria (Euaria, Euroea).〔(''Catholic Hierarchy'' page ), ()〕 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「Euroea in Phoenicia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
