Robert de Fyvie : ウィキペディア英語版 | Robert de Fyvie
Robert de Fyvie (de Fyvin ) (d. 1292 × 1295) was a prelate based in the Kingdom of Scotland in the last quarter of the 13th century. Perhaps coming from Fyvie in Formartine, from a family of Teesdale origin, Robert was Archdeacon of Ross and a student at the University of Bologna by 1269. In 1275, he was not only a graduate but the new Bishop of Ross, a post he held until his death in the first half of the 1290s. ==Early life and career==
There has been confusion over his name in some sources. Papal sources use ''S'' instead of ''F'', ''Syvin'' instead of ''Fyvin'', while Scottish sources use the ''F''; Walter Bower erroneously believed his forename was "Thomas", a mistake that was followed by the early modern ecclesiastical historian Robert Keith.〔Dowden, ''Bishops'', p. 213; Keith, ''Historical Catalogue'', p. 187; Watt, ''Dictionary'', p. 208.〕 His name almost certainly indicates that he came from Fyvie, a royal burgh in the province of Formartine, a royal demesne territory under heavy influence from the immigrant le Cheyne family as well as the Comyn-controlled earldom of Buchan.〔Watt, ''Dictionary'', p. 208.〕 He is found as a student at the University of Bologna on 5 December 1269, when along with one Alan de Edinburgh he gave a receipt for 20 marks to some Florentine merchants; in this appearance he is recorded as Archdeacon of Ross, a position which, under the Fortrose Cathedral constitution of 1256, meant he must have already been in deacon's orders, as this constitution made that a prerequisite for holding the archdeaconry.〔Watt, ''Dictionary'', p. 208; Watt, ''Fasti Ecclesiae'', p. 285.〕 He must have become Archdeacon of Ross sometime after the last known archdeacon, Robert, had become consecrated as Bishop of Ross, that is, after either 1249 or 1250, though there may have been one or several unrecorded archdeacons in an intervening period.〔Watt, ''Dictionary'', p. 208; Watt, ''Fasti Ecclesiae'', pp. 267, 285.〕 It is extremely probable that his accession to the archdeaconry owed something to Comyn influence, Fyvie being from Comyn's area of influence and Alexander Comyn, Earl of Buchan, being sheriff of Dingwall in the 1260s (1264–1266).〔Reid & Barrow, ''Sheriffs of Scotland'', p. 10; Watt, ''Dictionary'', p. 208.〕 It is likely that Robert was still in Bologna in 1272; in that year, Robert was not one of the five ''compromissarii'' selected by the Ross cathedral chapter who elected Matthew as Bishop of Ross, but the chapter did appoint him to accompany Matthew to the papal court at Orvieto, presumably because he was conveniently still in Italy.〔Watt, ''Dictionary'', pp. 208, 385.〕 Robert had graduated with a Master's degree by 1275.〔
