Bordj-Bou-Djadi is an archaeological site and former Catholic diocese located on the outskirts of Tunis, Tunisia. The area is situated near Ucres, at 36.901123n, 9.97083e. It is now a Latin Catholic titular see. History The stone ruins at Bordj-Bou-Djadi have been tentatively identified with the Roman–Berber town of Ucres, a civitas of the Roman province of Africa Proconsularis, important enough to become one of the many suffragans of Carthage, the Metropolitan at its capital.[1][2] It flourished from 30BC until around 640AD. Several of its bishops are known from antiquity:[3] - Vitalis fl. 314, participant at the Council of Arles in 314 which condemned Donatism as heresy.
- Victor fl. 404, whose son left an epitaph in Rome
- Maximinus participated in the Council of Carthage in 411 with other Catholic and Donatist bishops, including his schismatic counterpart Vitalis, 411
- Quoduultdeus fl. 416-429, participated in the Council of Carthage in 419 on appeals to Rome
- Exitiosus fl. 484, participated in the Council of Carthage called in 484 by king Huneric of the Vandal Kingdom, after which he was exiled, like most Catholic bishops.
