History of Christianity in Sussex : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of Christianity in Sussex The history of Christianity in Sussex includes all aspects of the Christianity in the region that is now Sussex from its introduction to the present day. ==Early history==
After the Roman conquest of AD 43, the Celtic society of Sussex became heavily Romanized.〔Snyder.''The Britons''. p. 53.〕〔Cunliffe. Ancient Celts. pp. 260–267〕 The first written account of Christianity in Britain comes from the early Christian Berber author, Tertullian, writing in the third century, who said that "Christianity could ''even'' be found in Britain."〔Snyder.''The Britons''. pp. 106–107〕 Emperor Constantine (AD 306-337), granted official tolerance to Christianity with the Edict of Milan in AD 313.〔Charles Thomas ''Christianity in Roman Britain to AD 500''.p. 47〕 Then, in the reign of Emperor Theodosius "the Great" (AD 378–395), Christianity was made the official religion of the Roman Empire.〔R.M. Errington ''Roman Imperial Policy from Julian to Theodosius''. Chapter VIII. Theodosius〕 When Roman rule eventually ceased, Christianity was probably confined to urban communities.〔Snyder.''The Britons''. p. 105.〕 At Wiggonholt, on a tributary of the River Arun, a large lead tank with repeated chi-rho motifs was discovered in 1943, the only Roman period artefact in Sussex found with a definite Christian association. It may represent a baptismal font or a container for holy water, or alternatively may have been used by pagans.
