Cellae in Proconsulari was an ancient city and bishopric in Roman Africa, which remains a Latin titular see. HistoryThe Roman Era civitas (city) in Roman North Africa is tentatively identified with ruins at Ain Zouarin in modern Tunisia.{{citation needed|date=January 2017}} The location of this city is known thanks to a milestone that has revealed the site. The city was one of many in the Late Roman province of Africa Proconsularis which were important enough to become the seat of an ancient episcopal see, suffragan of the primatial Metropolitan of Carthage,[1] but later faded. Morcelli[2] mentions only one bishop, Cipriano, who was among the Catholic prelates summoned to Carthage in 484 by the Vandal king Huneric . Mesnage[3] and Ferron[4] instead attribute this seat two other bishops, Honorius and Casto, who took part in the Conference of Carthage (411), which saw gathered together Catholic bishops and Donatists of Roman Africa. Morcelli mentions another venue Cellensis, which ranks in the Roman province of Byzacena. According to Ferron that would refer in fact to the diocese of Zella. Titular seeIn 1933 the diocese was nominally restored as titular bishopric Cellae in Proconsulari, of the lowest (episcopal) rank. It has had the following incumbents, so far of fitting episcopal rank: [5]
