Olba ((トルコ語:Oura)) was an ancient city and bishopric in the Roman province of Isauria, in present-day southern Turkey. It is included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.〔''Annuario Pontificio 2013'' (Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 2013, ISBN 978-88-209-9070-1)〕 ==History== Olba was a city of Cetis in Cilicia Aspera, later forming part of Isauria; it had a temple of Zeus, whose priests were once kings of the country, and became a Roman colony. Strabo (XIV, 5, 10) and Ptolemy (V, 8, 6) call it Olbasa. A coin of Diocæsarea, Olbos; Hierocles (''Synecdemus'', 709), Olbe; Basil of Seleucia (Mirac. S.Theclæ, 2, 8) and the Greek ''Notitiæ episcopatuum'', Olba. The primitive name must have been Ourba or Orba, found in Theophanes the Chronographer, hence Ourbanopolis in "Acta S. Bartholomei". Le Quien (''Oriens christianus'', II, 1031) gives four bishops between the fourth and seventh centuries; but the ''Notitiæ episcopatuum'' mentions the see until the thirteenth century. Its ruins, north of Silifke in the Turkish province of Mersin, are called ''Oura'' in Turkish. 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「Olba (ancient city)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
