Biography
Daniel Vocatius was a native of Split in present-day Croatia. He was a Franciscan friar. On request of certain believers from the Diocese of Duvno, Pope Julius III appointed Daniel Vocatius as bishop of Duvno on 2 December 1551.[1] He was consecrated a bishop in Rome.[2] At the end of 1551 or in early 1552, Vocatius brought with him four diocesan priests to appoint them as vicars in the Diocese of Duvno in order to have clergy under his direct jurisdiction. However, the Bosnian Franciscans who considered that they had exclusive right on chaplaincy opposed to this and the diocesan priests were sent back.[1] Vocatius remained bishop of Duvno until 1557, when he was appointed coadjutor bishop of Sigüenza.[2] On 9 May 1575 Vocatius was appointed bishop of Muro Lucano by Pope Gregory XIII.[3]
