Septimunicia

Septimunicia (Italian: Settimunicia) is a titular bishopric of the Roman Catholic Church.[1][2] The location is not certain, but assumed to be in Tunisia. Today Settimunicia survives as a titular bishopric and the current Bishop is Emilio Bataclan, of Cebu.

Africa Proconsularis (125 AD)

History

Septimunicia goes back to an earlier bishopric in the Roman province of Byzacena[3] in the Sahel region of present-day Tunisia.[4] [5][6][7] The exact location of the seat of the bishopric is unknown but it was supposed to be at the foot of a high mountain called Burgaon, which appears to be a branch of the Dsaletus, Mount Uselet.[8][9] The ruins of Oglet-El-Metnem or Henchir-El-Bliaa in modern Tunisia, have both been suggested as its site.

The only known bishop of this African diocese is Pascasio, who took part in the Council of Carthage called in 484 by King Huneric of the Vandal Kingdom, after which he was exiled like most Catholic bishops, unlike their Donatist heretical–schismatic counterparts.

gollark: There is still not, as far as I know, an approach to detect what an object is other than just training neural networks on the task.
gollark: It's simple to say, for example, "the program should detect if something is a bird", but incredibly hard to actually explain how to detect birds.
gollark: Yes. A lot of the time something can be simple to *vaguely describe* but really hard to describe precisely enough for you to actually program it.
gollark: ... because it is a complicated thing.
