Cilibia was an Ancient city and bishopric in Roman North Africa, which remains a Latin Catholic titular see.
History
Cilibia, probably at the site of Henchir-Kelbia in present Tunisia, was among the many cities in the Roman province of Africa Proconsularis that were important enough to become a suffragan diocese of the Metropolitan of Carthage, in the papal sway.
Three of its bishops are historically documented, including a schismatic:
- Tertullus was among the Donatist heretical bishops attending the council of Carthage called in 411 by Western Roman emperor Honorius, where their Catholic counterparts saw Donatism condemned
- Restitutus attended the Synod of Carthage (525)
- Johannes (John) participated in the Council of Carthage (646).
