The Archbishop of Nazareth is a former residential Metropolitan see, first in the Holy Land, then in Apulian exile in Berletta (southern Italy), which had a Latin and a Maronite successor as titular sees, the first merged into Berletta, the second suppressed. == History == Biblical Nazareth was one of the major sees of the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem during the crusades. After capturing Nazareth, the leaders of the First Crusade moved there the Metropolitan see of Scythopolis, while the Greek Orthodox continued to maintain two separate dioceses. Nazareth thus became a Latin Church Metropolitan Archdiocese circa 100 AD. Among its suffragans were the Bishopric of Tiberias and the Abbot of Mount Tabor. Following the Muslim conquest in the Holy Land, the Archbishops of Nazareth took refuge in Barletta (Apulia, southern Italy), and moved permanently there in 1327. It began the long line of Metropolitan Archbishops of Nazareth residing in Barletta, which was called the see of Nazareth in Barletta. On June 27, 1818, with the papal bull ''De ulteriori'' of Pope Pius VII, the Archdiocese of Nazareth was suppressed. On 22 October 1828, with the Bull ''Multis quidem'' of Pope Leo XII, the title of Archbishop of Nazareth was granted to the Archbishops of Trani. By mergers, the title passed again to the restyled Archbishops of Trani-Barletta (1860) and then to the Archbishops of Trani-Barletta-Bisceglie (1986). 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「Roman Catholic Archbishopric of Nazareth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
