From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hieron was an ancient city and former bishopric in ancient Caria, Asia Minor, which remains a Latin Catholic titular see as Hieron.

History

Hieron, now Avsarkale in Asian Turkey, was important enough in the Roman province of Caria (civil Diocese of Asia) to become a suffragan of its capital Stauropolis's Metropolitan, in the sway of the Patriarchate of Constantinople.

It has no historically documented bishops, but was mentioned in the Byzantine empire's Notitia Episcopatuum, from the edition of pseudo-Epifanio, under emperor Heraclius I (circa 640), until Byzantine emperor Leo VI (early tenth century) ^[1] and existed still in the thirteenth century.^[2]

Titular see

The diocese was nominally restored in 1933: Established as Latin Titular bishopric of Hieron (Latin) / Geron (Curiate Italian) / Hieritan(us) (Latin adjective)

It has had the following incumbents, so far of the fitting Episcopal (lowest) rank :
