The Diocese of Maxita (Massita in curiate Italian) is a bishopric in Algeria. It was a Roman Catholic Church diocese in the Roman province of Africa Proconsulare.[1][2][3][4]

History

Maxita is located in the region of Al-Asnam, Algeria. It is an ancient Christian episcopal see in the Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis,[5] suffragan of the Metropolitan of its capital Caesarea Mauretaniae.

It may have been centered on the unrecorded basilica discovered at Al Asnam, but was to fade.

Only one bishop is known from antiquity: Felix (Italian: Felice), who was among the Catholic prelates summoned to the Council of Carthage (484) by the Arian Vandal king Huneric.

Titular see
