Английская Википедия:Dystis
Dystis was a city and bishopric in Roman Libya, which remains a Latin Catholic titular see.
Its modern location has been postulated in northern Tunisia or somewhere in southern modern Libya.
History
Dystis was important enough in the Roman province of Libya Superior -Libya Pentapolitana; originally part of Cyrenaica (and Crete)- to become one of the suffragan sees in this province,[1][2][3] which depend directly on the Patriarchate of Alexandria (in Egypt) without a proper Metropolitan, but faded like most bishoprics in Roman Africa.
Its only recorded Suffragan Bishops were:
- Samuel, participant in the (minor) council of Ephesus in 431
- Petrus, attending the Synod of Constantinople (458) |synod of Constantinople in 458 against simony.
Titular see
In 1933 the diocese was nominally restored as Latin Titular bishopric of Dystis / Dystien(sis) (Latin adjective) / Disti (Curiate Italian).[4]
It is vacant, having had only these incumbents, all of the fitting Episcopal (lowest) rank, with an archiepiscopal exception (pro hac vice):[5]
- André-Joseph-Prosper Dupont, White Fathers (M. Afr.) (1941.07.08 – 1955.09.14) as last Apostolic Vicar of Bobo-Dioulasso (Burkina Faso, then Upper Volta) (1941.07.08 – 1955.09.14), next promoted first Bishop of Roman Catholic Diocese of Bobo-Dioulasso (1955.09.14 – retired 1974.12.12); died 1999
- Antonio Oña de Echave (1956.03.27 – 1961.05.24) as Auxiliary Bishop of Lugo (Spain) (1956.03.27 – 1961.05.24), next succeeded as Bishop of Lugo (1961.05.24 – retired 1979.07.25); died 1987
- Titular Archbishop Emilio de Brigard Ortiz (1961.10.26 – death 1986.03.06) as Auxiliary Bishop of Archdiocese of Bogotá (Colombia) (1944.07.29 – 1986.03.06), which he was previously as Titular Bishop of Coracesium (1944.07.29 – 1961.10.26).
