Tralles was a colonia (town) of the Hellenic, Roman and Byzantine empires. Tralles was sacked by the Ottoman Turks in 1284,[1][2][3] but remains today a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church. A new Turkish city, Aydın, was built in its place.

Bishops

An early bishop Polybius (fl. ca. 105) is attested by a letter from Saint Ignatius of Antioch to the church at Tralles. Ignatius wrote an epistle to the church here,[4] and Anthemius of Tralles, the architect of Hagia Sophia in Constantinople, was born in Tralles. The city was officially Christianized, along with the rest of Caria, early after the conversion of Constantine, at which time the see was confirmed. Among the recorded bishops are:

Heracleon (fl.431),
Maximus (451),
Uranius (553),[5]
Michel[6]
Myron (692),
Theophylactus (787),
Theophanes and Theopistus both 9th century,
John (1230).

The Catholic Church includes this bishopric in its list of titular sees as Tralles in Asia, distinguishing it from the see of Tralles in Lydia. It has appointed no new titular bishop to these Eastern sees since the Second Vatican Council.[7]

gollark: It's browser-dependent. Probably in a database in the browser's app data folders somewhere.

gollark: Put a textarea in the HTML part of your thing, and some buttons to save/~~edit~~/delete etc. Those can read the `value` property of it and save it to localstorage (you should also read its contents and set the value to that on page load).

gollark: Yes, you can also read localstorage, it would not be useful otherwise.

gollark: Java and JS aren't the same. Anyway, the page has some examples for writing to it.
