Nova Barbara

Nova Barbara (latin: Novabarbarensis) was a Roman–Berber town in the province of Numidia. It has been tentatively identified with the stone ruins at Beni-Barbar or Henchir-Barbar, Algeria. The Beni-Barbar tribe take its name from this location, though it has been several centuries since it lived there. It was also the seat of an ancient Catholic diocese.

The ancient bishopric is now a titular see of Nova Barbara in the Ecclesiastical province of Numidia.[1] The only known ancient bishop from Novabarbara was Adeodato, who participated in the synod meeting in Carthage in 484 called by the Vandal king Huneric. Huneric was an Arian Christian and as part of his program to remove Catholic influence in his newly established domains he had Adeodato later exiled.

Today Nova Barbara survives as titular bishopric,[2][3] and the current titular bishop is Toshihiro Sakai, auxiliar bishop of Osaka, Japan.[4][5]

gollark: Have you tried writing it with async/await syntax instead? That might make it clearer.
gollark: <@336962240848855040> You asked about a POWER ISA server: you actually can but it's very expensive. There's a company called Raptor Computing Systems or something which sells POWER9 CPUs and boards.
gollark: Alpine Linux (https://www.alpinelinux.org/) perhaps, I've used that before.
gollark: It's kind of annoying that we apparently can't just standardize on ext4 or something instead of exFAT, but Windows doesn't support it...
