释义 |
The Diocese of Thiges ({{lang-la|Dioecesis Thigensis}}) was a Roman Catholic diocese in ancient Byzacena. HistoryIn late antiquity the diocese was centered on a civitas of the Roman Province of Byzacena, Africa Province. That ancient civitas is today identifiable with Bordj-Gourbata in today's Tunisia.[1] The diocese lasted until the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb, when it ceased to function effectively. However, the dioces was reborn in name at least in the early 20th century as a titular see.Today Tiges survives as a titular bishop's seat. Bishops
